Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Washington County, Daniel Kitchen, District Associate Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Tabor, P.J., and Greer and Badding, JJ. Opinion by Greer, J. (2 pages)
A jury convicted Eric Ryan of two counts of indecent contact with a child. Ryan appeals, arguing only that his trial counsel provided ineffective assistance. OPINION HOLDS: Because Iowa Code section 814.7 (2020) prevents us from deciding Ryan’s claims of ineffective assistance on direct appeal and he raises no other issues, we affirm.
