Before POSNER, Chief Judge, BAUER and DIANE P. WOOD, Circuit Judges.


BAUER, Circuit Judge.

Terry Galowski appeals the district court's denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Galowski raises three claims: (1) that his trial counsel provided ineffective assistance by failing to request a competency hearing; (2) that he was incompetent to plead guilty; and (3) that the district court improperly granted a continuance during an evidentiary hearing. We reject all three claims and affirm.
