EVANS v. STATE

No. 85-1434.

488 So.2d 636 (1986)

Gene EVANS, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.

May 14, 1986.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Gene Evans, Raiford, pro se appellant.

Jim Smith, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Sarah B. Mayer, Asst. Atty. Gen., West Palm Beach, for appellee.


PER CURIAM.

We affirm the trial court's denial, after an evidentiary hearing, of the appellant's motion for post-conviction relief. We do so out of deference to the trial court's fact-finding authority on the disputed issues of fact tried at the hearing. There is competent, substantial evidence in the record to support the trial court's conclusion that appellant's trial counsel was not ineffective. Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668
