Opinion
No. ED 82460
April 6, 2004
Appeal from the Circuit Court of the City of St. Louis, Honorable Evelyn Baker.
Amanda R. Schehr, St. Louis, Missouri, for Appellant.
Andrea Kaye Spillars, Jefferson City, Missouri, for Respondent.
Before Sherri B. Sullivan, C.J., Gary M. Gaertner, Sr., J., and George W. Draper III, J.
ORDER
Rodney Harris (Movant) appeals from the judgment denying his Rule 24.035 motion for post-conviction relief without an evidentiary hearing. Movant contends he entered his guilty plea to first-degree robbery unknowingly because his counsel failed to inform him that he would be required to serve 85 percent of the prison term before becoming eligible for parole.
All rule references are to Mo. R. Crim. P. 2003, unless otherwise indicated.
Having reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal, we conclude the motion court did not clearly err. Rule 24.035(k). An extended opinion would have no precedential value. We have, however, provided the parties a memorandum setting forth the reasons for our decision. We affirm the judgment pursuant to Missouri Rule of Civil Procedure 84.16(b).
