Criminal Procedure — ineffective assistance

Amir Khan appeals a judgment convicting him of first-degree sexual assault of a child under twelve years old. He also appeals an order denying his postconviction motion without a hearing. He argues: (1) the court erred when it answered questions the jury posed during its deliberations; (2) his trial attorney was ineffective for agreeing to the court’s answer to the first jury question and for not requesting an additional response to the second question; and (3) the court erred by deciding the postconviction motion without a hearing. We reject these arguments and affirm the judgment and order. This opinion will not be published.
