ORDER

PER CURIAM.

Robert Shafer ("movant") appeals the judgment of the motion court dismissing his requests for post-conviction relief pursuant to Missouri Supreme Court Rule 24.035 without evidentiary hearing, and for dismissing a remaining claim after evidentiary hearing. Movant claims the trial court clearly erred in denying post-conviction relief because he was denied effective assistance of counsel on several grounds. Movant also argues that the trial court erroneously accepted his plea without a proper inquiry as to the voluntariness of the plea.

*46 We have reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal and find no error of law. No jurisprudential purpose would be served by a written opinion. However, the parties have been furnished with a memorandum opinion for their information only, setting forth the facts and reasons for this order.

The judgment of the trial court is affirmed in accordance with Rule 84.16(b).
