Lehman v. State

No. 20110134



Per Curiam.

[¶1]	Troy Lehman appeals from the trial court’s order dismissing his application for post-conviction relief.  On appeal, Lehman proffers four grounds he claims constitute ineffective assistance of counsel.  He argues his trial counsel failed to call relevant witnesses, inadequately cross-examined the State’s witnesses, forced him to waive his right to testify, improperly allowed the information to be amended, and improperly waived his right to an arraignment and a preliminary hearing regarding a terrorizing charge.

[¶2]	We affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2).
