Washington v. State
Missouri Court of Appeals · Decided September 12, 2006 · Ahrens, Baker, Hoff
201 S.W.3d 71; 2006 Mo. App. LEXIS 1326; 2006 WL 2597972 (South Western Reporter, Third Series)

Washington v. State

Opinion of the Court

ORDER

PER CURIAM.

Richard Washington (“Movant”) appeals from a judgment in the Circuit Court of the City of St. Louis denying his Rule 29.15 motion for post conviction relief. Movant claims two points on appeal. First, he contends that the motion court erred in denying his motion because trial counsel was ineffective for failing to object to the admission of a box of ammunition found in his bedroom. Second, he contends that trial counsel was ineffective for failing to request that the court submit a jury instruction on the lesser-included offense of attempted second-degree robbery.

We have reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal and find the claims of error to be without merit. No jurisprudential purpose would be served by a written opinion reciting the detailed facts and restating the principles of law. The parties have been furnished with a memorandum opinion for their information only, which sets forth the facts and reasons for this order.

We affirm the judgment pursuant to Rule 84.16(b).
