Carey v. State
Missouri Court of Appeals · Decided May 31, 2011 · Odenwald, Dowd, House
341 S.W.3d 888; 2011 Mo. App. LEXIS 726; 2011 WL 2138596 (South Western Reporter, Third Series)

Carey v. State

Opinion

ORDER

PER CURIAM.

John Carey (“Movant”) appeals the denial of his Rule 24.035 motion for postcon-viction relief following an evidentiary hearing. Movant asserts the motion court clearly erred in denying his motion for post-conviction relief because his plea attorneys were ineffective in failing to investigate and secure a potential witness, and in failing to litigate and secure the dismissal of the armed criminal action count associated with the assault of a law enforcement officer by the reckless operation of a motor vehicle.

We have reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal. We find no error of law. No jurisprudential purpose would be served by a written opinion. However, the parties have been furnished with a memorandum opinion for their information only, setting forth the facts and reasons for this order.

The judgment of the motion court is affirmed. Rule 84.16(b).
