ORDER
PER CURIAM
Gerardo Martinez ("Movant") appeals from the motion court’s "Memorandum, Decision, and Judgment Denying Motion for Post-Conviction Relief" denying Movant’s "Amended Motion Under Rule 24.035," which alleged ineffective assistance of counsel, after an evidentiary hearing. We affirm.
We have reviewed the briefs of the parties, the legal file, and the record on appeal and find the claims of error to be without merit. No error of law appears. An extended opinion reciting the detailed facts and restating the principles of law applicable to this case would serve no jurisprudential or precedential purpose. We have, however, provided a memorandum opinion for the use of the parties setting forth the reasons for our decision. We affirm the Judgment pursuant to Rule 84.16(b).
