[1] ORDERPER CURIAM. [2] Defendant Demond Steward appeals the motion court’s denial after an evidentiary hearing of his Rule 29.15 motion for post-conviction relief on the issue of ineffective counsel. Mr. Steward alleges that his attorney was ineffective because he failed to investigate and call an alibi witness. [3] We have examined the briefs and record on appeal.
