Hatch v. State

Hatch v. State
Missouri Court of Appeals · Decided July 20, 2004 · Hardwick, Holliger, Spinden
138 S.W.3d 809; 2004 Mo. App. LEXIS 1052; 2004 WL 1607062 (South Western Reporter, Third Series)

Hatch v. State

Opinion of the Court

ORDER

PER CURIAM.

Larry Hatch appeals the denial of his Rule 29.15 motion after an evidentiary hearing. He asserts his trial counsel was ineffective in failing to impeach the testimony of the State’s primary witness. Upon review of the record, we find no error in the motion court’s determination that trial counsel exercised reasonable trial strategy. We have provided the parties with a Memorandum explaining the reasons for our decision because a published opinion would have no jurisprudential value.

The judgment is affirmed. Rule 84.16(b).
