21                                 MEMORANDUM OPINION

22 VIGIL, Judge.
1       Defendant appealed his convictions for trafficking, tampering, and resisting,

2 evading, or obstructing an officer, challenging the sufficiency of the evidence. [DS




                                            2
 1 3] We issued a calendar notice proposing to summarily affirm. Defendant filed a

 2 memorandum in response and a motion to amend the docketing statement with two

 3 new issues. After due consideration, we deny the motion to amend and affirm.

 4 DISCUSSION

 5 Sufficiency

 6        Defendant’s memorandum in opposition indicates that he is withdrawing his

 7 challenge to the sufficiency of the evidence. [MIO 10] When a case is decided on

 8 the summary calendar, an issue is deemed abandoned where a party fails to

 9 respond to the proposed disposition of the issue. State v. Johnson, 107 N.M. 356,

10 358, 758 P.2d 306, 308 (Ct. App. 1988). We therefore deem this issue abandoned.

11 Motion to Amend

12        Defendant also seeks to amend the docketing statement with two issues

13 related to his speedy trial rights. [Id. 1-2] A motion to amend the docketing

14 statement may only be granted if it is timely, and if the issues are viable. See State

15 v. Moore, 109 N.M. 119, 128-30, 782 P.2d 91, 100-102 (Ct. App. 1989), overruled

16 on other grounds by State v. Salgado, 112 N.M. 537, 817 P.2d 730 (Ct. App.

17 1991).

18        Defendant first raises a speedy trial claim, which he acknowledges was not

19 raised below. [Id. 4-9] An issue concerning a possible violation of the right to a

                                              3
 1 speedy trial must be raised in the trial court and a ruling invoked on the issue or it

 2 will not be considered on appeal. See State v. Rojo, 1999-NMSC-001, ¶¶ 49-53,

 3 126 N.M. 438, 971 P.2d 829. Based on the limited record available to us due to

 4 Defendant’s failure to invoke a ruling below, we are not in a position to evaluate

 5 the four factors from Barker v. Wingo, 407 U.S. 514, 530 (1972). “Where there is

 6 a doubtful or deficient record, every presumption must be indulged by the

 7 reviewing court in favor of the correctness and regularity of the [trial] court’s

 8 judgment.” In re Ernesto M., Jr., 1996-NMCA-039, ¶ 19, 121 N.M. 562, 915 P.2d

 9 318. Moreover, we are not persuaded that anything “in the record suggests such a

10 striking violation of the constitutional right to a speedy trial that it would be

11 appropriate to consider that issue for the first time on appeal” as fundamental error.

12 See Rojo, 1999-NMSC-001, ¶ 53 (internal quotation marks and citation omitted).

13 As Defendant’s response indicates, [MIO 2-4, 6, 8] Defendant was not incarcerated

14 the entire time because he was released on medical furlough, [RP 50-53, 55, 58-59]

15 Defendant requested a continuance because of his medical issues, [RP 63]

16 Defendant absconded and failed to appear at the pre-trial conference, [RP 82, 85]

17 and Defendant requested continuances to prepare for trial upon his return to New

18 Mexico and stipulated to the State’s request for an extension based on that request.

19 [RP 111, 118] In addition, the record contains no indication that Defendant ever

                                               4
 1 made a timely assertion of his right to a speedy trial or a motion to dismiss for

 2 speedy trial violations. We therefore reject this issue as not viable.

 3        Defendant next seeks to add a claim of ineffective assistance of counsel

 4 based on the failure to raise the speedy trial claim. [MIO 9-10] “When an

 5 ineffective assistance claim is first raised on direct appeal, we evaluate the facts

 6 that are part of the record. If facts necessary to a full determination are not part of

 7 the record, an ineffective assistance claim is more properly brought through a

 8 habeas corpus petition, although an appellate court may remand a case for an

 9 evidentiary hearing if the defendant makes a prima facie case of ineffective

10 assistance.” State v. Roybal, 2002-NMSC-027, ¶ 19, 132 N.M. 657, 54 P.3d 61

11 (citing State v. Swavola, 114 N.M. 472, 475, 840 P.2d 1238, 1241 (Ct. App.

12 1992)). There is a two-fold test for proving ineffective assistance of counsel; the

13 defendant must show (1) that counsel’s performance fell below that of a reasonably

14 competent attorney, and (2) that defendant was prejudiced by the deficient

15 performance. State v. Hester, 1999-NMSC-020, ¶ 9, 127 N.M. 218, 979 P.2d 729.

16 The burden of proof is on the defendant to prove both prongs. Id.

17        Although Defendant claims that he would have prevailed on the speedy trial

18 claim, [MIO 10] we do not agree based on the record before us. As discussed

19 above, the record indicates that Defendant was released on medical furlough,

                                              5
 1 absconded while on release, and requested several continuances before and after he

 2 absconded. While Defendant claims that New Mexico failed to bring him back in a

 3 timely fashion after he waived extradition, [MIO 8] the circumstances of

 4 Defendant’s extradition and return to New Mexico are not matters of record.

 5 Rather, the record merely indicates that a bench warrant was issued on June 21,

 6 2007, and that Defendant was arrested and taken into custody on August 27, 2008.

 7 [RP 86-87] Defendant also cites to no authority for the proposition that his alleged

 8 waiver of extradition should be construed as an assertion of his right to a speedy

 9 trial. [MIO 8] Contrary to Defendant’s claim that he asserted his speedy trial right,

10 Defendant requested two continuances upon his return to New Mexico and

11 stipulated to the State’s request for an extension. [RP 111, 118] Thus, Defendant

12 has not shown how he was prejudiced by any undue delay. See State v. Urban,

13 2004-NMSC-007, ¶ 18, 135 N.M. 279, 87 P.3d 1061 (addressing the “prejudice”

14 factor of the Barker test and holding that “[a]lthough the State bears the ultimate

15 burden of persuasion, Defendant does bear the burden of production on this issue,

16 and his failure to do so greatly reduces the State’s burden”) (citing Zurla v. State,

17 109 N.M. 640, 646, 789 P.2d 588, 594 (1990)).

18        Trial counsel is not ineffective for failing to make a motion that is not

19 supported by the record. State v. Chandler, 119 N.M. 727, 735, 895 P.2d 249, 257

                                              6
 1 (Ct. App. 1995) Thus, we conclude that the ineffective assistance of counsel claim

 2 is not viable. Accordingly, we deny Defendant’s motion to amend the docketing

 3 statement. Defendant must pursue this issue, if at all, in a habeas corpus

 4 proceeding. See State v. Telles, 1999-NMCA-013, ¶ 25, 126 N.M. 593, 973 P.2d

 5 845; State v. Martinez, 1996-NMCA-109, ¶ 25, 122 N.M. 476, 927 P.2d 31 (stating

 6 that “[t]his Court has expressed its preference for habeas corpus proceedings over

 7 remand when the record on appeal does not establish a prima facie case”).

 8 CONCLUSION

 9        For these reasons, we deny Defendant’s motion to amend the docketing

10 statement and affirm.

11        IT IS SO ORDERED.
