Shermer v. State

No. 20160115

Per Curiam.

[¶1] Brian Shermer appeals from a district court order summarily dismissing his application for post-conviction relief.  Shermer argues the district court erred dismissing his application because the evidence he submitted generated a genuine issue of material fact regarding the factual basis of his guilty plea and he received ineffective assistance of counsel because his counsel did not object to the factual basis.  We affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(6).
