¶6Manfred Maass (“the state”) appeals an order granting Donald Sager a writ of habe-as corpus. The district court held that Sager had been denied the effective assistance of counsel guaranteed by the Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution. We affirm the judgment substantially for the reasons given by the district court in its published memorandum, Sager v. Maass, 907 F.Supp. 1412 (D.Or.1995).
