ORDER

PER CURIAM.

Leonard Carpenter ("Movant") appeals from the judgment denying his Rule 29.15 motion for post-conviction relief after an evidentiary hearing. In his sole point on appeal, Movant asserts the motion court committed clear error in denying his motion because he received ineffective assistance as a result of the "all or nothing" approach adopted by his trial counsel with regard to a videotaped statement he made to police.
