Summary

            Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Polk County, David Porter, Judge.  AFFIRMED.  Considered by Badding, P.J., Chicchelly, J., and Carr, S.J.  Opinion by Carr, S.J.  (8 pages)

            Anthony Stoner appeals the dismissal of his application for postconviction relief (PCR), alleging his trial counsel failed to inform him of a previous plea offer and that his PCR counsel was ineffective for failing to develop the record on that issue.  OPINION HOLDS: We affirm the district court’s dismissal because Stoner has not preserved error on the issue of the previous plea offer, failed to sufficiently state the ways in which PCR counsel was ineffective, and has not alleged any prejudice occurred based on the ineffectiveness of his trial or PCR counsel.
