Opinion:
ORDER
PER CURIAM.
Michael Edwards (hereinafter, "Mov-ant") pleaded guilty to forcible rape, Section 566.030 RSMo (Cum.Supp.2006), and second-degree assault, Section 565.060 RSMo (Cum.Supp.2006). Movant now appeals from the judgment denying his Rule 24.035 motion for post-conviction relief without an evidentiary hearing. Movant raises two points on appeal, alleging the motion court erred in denying his post-conviction motion because his plea counsel failed to file a motion for a bill of particulars and a motion to dismiss, and his plea counsel failed to locate, interview, and endorse a witness.
We have reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal. We find no error of law. No jurisprudential purpose would be served by a written opinion. However, the parties have been furnished with a memorandum opinion for their information only, setting forth the facts and reasons for this order.
The judgment of the trial court is affirmed. Rule 84.16(b).
