Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Fayette County, John J. Sullivan, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered without oral arguments by Greer, P.J., and Badding and Chicchelly, JJ. Opinion by Chicchelly, J. (6 pages)
Jason Barksley appeals the denial of his application for postconviction relief (PCR) concerning his conviction for sexual abuse in the second degree. He alleges ineffective assistance of trial counsel and that the district court abused its discretion by accepting a written guilty plea. OPINION HOLDS: We affirm the district court’s denial of the application for postconviction relief because Barksley fails to establish his counsel was ineffective and the district court’s acceptance of the written guilty plea was proper.
