FILED: September 5, 2000
APPEAL FROM THE CIRCUIT COURT OF ST. LOUIS COUNTY, HONORABLE MAURA B. MCSHANE
Daniel L. Mohs, 4387 Laclede Avenue, St. Louis, MO 63108, for appellant.
Jeremiah W. Nixon, P.O. Box 899, Stacy L. Anderson, Jefferson City, MO 65102, for respondent.
Before Clifford H. Ahrens, P.J., William H. Crandall Jr., J., and James R. Dowd, J.
Malcolm Jackson (Movant) appeals the judgment denying his Rule 29.15 motion for post-conviction relief after an evidentiary hearing. Movant challenges his trial counsel's failure to properly file a motion for continuance. We previously affirmed his convictions for unlawful use of a weapon, section 571.030.1(1), RSMo 1994, and second degree trafficking of drugs, section 195.223, RSMo 1994, on direct appeal. State v. Jackson, 970 S.W.2d 915 (Mo.App.E.D. 1998).
We have reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal and conclude the trial court's determination is not clearly erroneous. Rule 29.15(k). An extended opinion would have no precedential value. We have, however, provided a memorandum for the use of the parties only setting forth the reasons for our decision. We affirm the judgment pursuant to Rule 84.16(b).
