Criminal Procedure — ineffective assistance

Damon John Seymour, pro se, appeals the judgment entered on a jury verdict convicting him of attempted armed robbery with use of force as a party to a crime. He also appeals the order denying his pro se motion for postconviction relief. Seymour claims that his trial counsel was ineffective and that the prosecutor made impermissible comments during her closing argument.

The circuit court denied Seymour’s motion without holding an evidentiary hearing. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
