OPINION

PAGE, Justice.

Appellant Andy William Prtine was convicted of first-degree felony murder for the stabbing death of Brent Ward. In this direct appeal, Prtine argues, in part, that he was denied effective assistance of counsel because his attorney conceded in his closing argument without Prtine's consent that Prtine intended to kill Ward. State v. Prtine, 784 N.W.2d 303, 317-18 (Minn. 2010).
