Criminal Procedure — ineffective assistance

Equontus Terrell Young appeals from a judgment of conviction, entered upon a jury’s verdict, on one count of first-degree reckless homicide while armed with a dangerous weapon. He further appeals from an order denying without a hearing his postconviction motion for a new trial based on ineffective assistance of trial counsel. Though Young contends his motion was at least sufficient to warrant a hearing, we conclude the circuit court properly denied the motion, and we affirm the judgment and order. This opinion shall not be published.
