APPEAL FROM CIRCUIT COURT OF ST. CHARLES COUNTY, HON. LUCY D. RAUCH, JUDGE.
John Munson Morris III, Assistant Attorney General, P.O. Box 899, Jefferson City, MO 65102, For Respondent.
Mary S. Choi, 1221 Locust St. Room 350, St. Louis MO 63103 Assistant Public Defender, For Appellant.
Before Crane, P.J., R. Dowd, J., and Sullivan, J.
ORDER
Vernon Stroud ("Defendant") appeals from a judgment denying his request for post-conviction relief pursuant to Rule 29.15. Defendant claims ineffective assistance of trial counsel. We have reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal and conclude the trial court's judgment is not clearly erroneous. Rule 29.15(k). An extended opinion would have no precedential value. We have, however, provided a memorandum opinion setting forth the reasons for our decision to the parties for their use only. We affirm the judgment pursuant to Rule 84.16(b).
All rule references are to Mo. R. Crim. P. 2000, unless otherwise indicated.
