Criminal Procedure
Ineffective assistance

Tijuan L. Walker appeals from a judgment of conviction entered after a jury found him guilty of injury by intoxicated use of a vehicle and from an order denying his postconviction motion. Walker argues that his Sixth Amendment right to effective assistance of counsel was violated because his trial counsel failed to meaningfully challenge the State’s case and failed to present a meaningful defense, and that, at the very least, the cumulative effect of trial counsel’s alleged errors constitutes ineffective assistance of counsel. For the reasons which follow, we disagree with Walker and affirm.
