Brown v. State
Missouri Court of Appeals · Decided June 4, 1996 · Smart, Stith, Ulrich
926 S.W.2d 151; 1996 Mo. App. LEXIS 950; 1996 WL 290577 (South Western Reporter, Second Series)

Brown v. State

Opinion of the Court

ORDER

PER CURIAM:

Lafayette L. Brown appeals from the denial of his Rule 24.035 motion without an evi-dentiary hearing. Mr. Brown contends that his guilty plea was entered unknowingly, un-intelligently and involuntarily because counsel was ineffective in failing to investigate whether the state had sufficient information to support a conviction prior to entry of the plea.

*152We have reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal and find no error. Because a published opinion would have no precedential value, we affirm by this summary order under Rule 84.16(b) but have furnished the parties with a memorandum opinion, for their information only, setting forth our reasoning.

Affirmed. Rule 84.16(b).
