Brian C. JOHNSON, Appellant, v. STATE of Missouri, Respondent.
Order
Brian Johnson appeals, following an evidentiary hearing, the denial of his amended Rule 24.035 motion for post-conviction relief. Johnson raises one point on appeal; he argues that the motion court clearly erred in denying his motion because plea counsel’s failure to refute statements by the prosecutor during Johnson’s sentencing hearing regarding his institutional history constituted ineffective assistance of counsel. Finding no error, we affirm. Rule 84.16(b).
