Parizek v. State

No. 20140356

Per Curiam.

[¶1] Ronald Eugene Parizek, Sr. appeals from a district court order denying his application for postconviction relief.  Parizek pled guilty to and was convicted of three counts of delivery of marijuana, class B felonies, and driving under suspension, a class B misdemeanor.  Parizek applied for postconviction relief, arguing he had received ineffective assistance of counsel.  The district court held an evidentiary hearing and denied his application.  We summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2), concluding the district court’s findings of fact are not clearly erroneous and the court did not err in determining Parizek failed to establish ineffective assistance of counsel.
