Saucedo v. State

No. 20170224



Per Curiam.

[¶1]	Joe Saucedo appeals from a district court order denying his application for post-conviction relief.  Saucedo argues the district court erred in denying his application for post-conviction relief because his counsel was ineffective.  We summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2), concluding the district court did not clearly err in denying Saucedo’s application.
