Criminal Procedure — ineffective assistance

Armando Garcia appeals from multiple judgments of conviction, entered upon his guilty pleas following revocation of a global deferred prosecution agreement (DPA). He also appeals from orders denying his postconviction motion for plea withdrawal or resentencing. Garcia contends he received ineffective assistance of trial counsel because that attorney failed to object when the same judge who supervised Garcia’s participation in a drug treatment court imposed his sentences following revocation of the DPA. We reject Garcia’s argument and affirm the judgments and orders. This opinion shall not be published.
