Office Of The Attorney General, by Scott Stuart, attorney for appellee.

Before SOUTHWICK, P.J., BRIDGES, and BRANTLEY, JJ.


SOUTHWICK, P.J., for the court.

¶ 1. Jimmy Voyles was convicted of one count of fondling a child who was under sixteen years of age. He appeals alleging that the circuit court erred in not granting his motion for directed verdict, in allowing the State to amend the indictment the day of trial to add an habitual offender charge, and in allowing hearsay testimony. He also argues that his trial counsel rendered ineffective assistance. We disagree and affirm.
