Cross v. State

ORDER

PER CURIAM.

Eddie Cross (Movant) appeals the judgment of the Circuit Court of St. Louis County denying his Rule 24.035 motion for post-conviction relief. Movant claims the motion court clearly erred in denying his claim that plea counsel provided ineffective assistance by allowing Movant to enter a blind plea of guilty under the reasonable misunderstanding that the State was recommending a sentence of fifteen years’ imprisonment and the plea court would not exceed the State’s recommended sentence.

We have reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal and find the motion court’s decision was not clearly erroneous. An extended opinion would have no precedential value. We have, however, provided a memorandum opinion only for the use of the parties setting forth the reasons for our decision.

We affirm the judgment pursuant to Rule 84.16(b).
