Duane Beard appeals from the motion court's denial of his Rule 29.15 motion which claimed structural error at trial depriving him of a fair and impartial jury; ineffective assistance of trial and appellate counsel in failing to challenge a venireperson or to claim plain error on appeal because the venireperson was selected for the jury; and ineffective assistance of trial counsel in failing to inform Beard of a plea offer. Finding no error, we affirm. Rule 84.16(b).
