If no such request is made, the trial judge shall certify of record that there are no facts that have come to the court’s attention upon which such a claim could reasonably be based or, alternatively, the court may appoint new counsel. No deficiency in the application of the procedure described herein shall be grounds for relief from a judgment of conviction or from a sentence.","path":["TITLE 19 CRIMINAL PROCEDURE","CHAPTER 27 EXECUTION"],"source_url":"https://legislature.idaho.gov/statutesrules/idstat/title19/t19ch27/sect19-2720/","current_through":"2026 Legislative Session","vintage":"","retrieved_at":"2026-09-04T11:17:17Z","sha256":"88c806176eb105d49b820ef5961da2e62516bf9bd42e9c2545a33bfd933b1e93","source_id":"us-id","stale":false,"prev":"us-id/idaho-code-19-2719a","next":"us-id/idaho-code-19-2801"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
