Caldwell v. State
Caldwell v. State
53 S.W.3d 173; 2001 Mo. App. LEXIS 998; 2001 WL 650647
(South Western Reporter, Third Series)
Opinion of the Court
Order
Alphonso Caldwell appeals from the order of the circuit court denying his Rule 29.15 motion for post-conviction relief, following an evidentiary hearing. He claims that the motion court erred in denying his motion because he established by a preponderance of the evidence that he received ineffective assistance of trial counsel in that the evidence at the motion hearing demonstrated that competent and effective counsel would have impeached a State’s witness with his prior inconsistent statement that someone other than the appellant sold him the controlled substance in question.
Judgment affirmed. Rule 84.16(b).
