Opinion:
ORDER
PER CURIAM.
Johnny L. Bowman pleaded guilty to one count of voluntary manslaughter, § 565.023 RSMo 1994, and one count of armed criminal action, § 571.015 RSMo 1994. He then filed for post-conviction relief under Rule 24.035, alleging his plea was involuntary due to ineffective assistance of counsel. He now appeals from the lower court's judgment, which denied his Rule 24.035 motion without an eviden-tiary hearing.
Judgment affirmed. Rule 84.16(b).
