ORDER
PER CURIAM
Michael D. Jenkins ("Movant") appeals the motion court's order denying his Rule 29.15 motion for post-conviction relief following an evidentiary hearing, finding that Movant failed to establish by a preponderance of the evidence that his trial counsel was ineffective. Movant brings three points on appeal, each arguing that the motion court clearly erred in denying his Rule 29.15 motion because he proved by a preponderance of the evidence that trial counsel was ineffective for: (1) failing to investigate and call a material alibi witness, (2) failing to object to hearsay testimony, and (3) failing to challenge identification evidence.
A written opinion would have no precedential value nor serve any jurisprudential purpose. We have provided the parties a memorandum setting forth the reasons for our decision. We affirm the order of the motion court under Rule 84.16(b).
