                               Beyer v. State
                               No. 20200052

Per Curiam.

[¶1] Dalton Beyer appeals from an order denying post-conviction relief.
Beyer argues the district court erred by denying his application for post-
conviction relief seeking to withdraw his guilty plea. Beyer argues his plea
was not voluntary due to the combined effects of psychiatric medications and
withdrawal from hormone therapy. The district court found that Beyer was
capable of making knowing, intelligent, and voluntary decisions at the time he
entered his plea, and the plea was knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently
made. The court did not err in denying Beyer’s application for post-conviction
relief and we summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2).
