Criminal Procedure — ineffective assistance

A jury found Jon Raether guilty of second-degree sexual assault of a child and felony bail jumping. Raether appeals the judgment of conviction and the order denying his postconviction motion, which primarily was based on a claim of ineffective assistance of trial counsel. We agree with Raether that aspects of counsel’s performance were deficient, but disagree that those deficits were prejudicial. His ineffectiveness claim therefore fails. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
