Criminal Procedure — ineffective assistance — new trials

Bryanntton A. Brown appeals from a judgment of conviction entered after a jury found him guilty of one count of repeatedly sexually assaulting the same child and from an order denying his postconviction motion. Brown contends that: (1) he received ineffective assistance from his trial counsel; (2) the trial court erred in concluding that new evidence revealing a witness’s mental illness did not entitle Brown to a new trial; and (3) the trial court erroneously exercised its discretion at sentencing. We disagree and affirm. Not recommended for publication in the official reports.
