NEUMAN, Justice.

This is an appeal by defendant, Michael Lee Hawkins, from the judgment and sentence entered upon his convictions of two counts of perjury as an habitual offender in violation of Iowa Code sections 720.2 and 902.8 (1997). The perjury charges stem from Hawkins' testimony during a postconviction relief hearing. His testimony contradicted statements made in his prior guilty-plea colloquy to the charge of delivery of methamphetamine.
