The motion court denied defendant relief, and on appeal, the Eastern District held that the motion court's judgment was not clearly erroneous because there was evidence that defendant had sufficient understanding of the proceedings. Id. at 507-08; see also Garces v. State, 862 S.W.2d 509, 511 (Mo. App. 1993) (where movant appeals denial of post conviction relief on the basis that counsel was ineffective for appointing a Spanish interpreter whom movant could not "understand," the court held that the record refuted movant's claim in that it showed interpreter was fluent in Spanish and had previous experience in interpreting in court proceedings). In the instant matter, Movant has failed to demonstrate that he was unable to fully comprehend that he was waiving his right to a jury trial at the said jury trial waiver proceeding.
Id. Unlike Moore, Defendant clearly stated no one had threatened him to plead guilty. Also, Defendant did not allege he was told to lie about his guilt. See, Garces v. State, 862 S.W.2d 509, 510-11[1] (Mo.App. 1993); Williams v. State, 760 S.W.2d 200, 202[5] (Mo.App. 1988). Point denied.
