Syllabus

Appellant did not receive ineffective assistance of trial counsel when his trial counsel did not object to various alleged hearsay statements where many of the statements were either non-hearsay statements or exceptions to rule against hearsay. Appellant also did not receive ineffective assistance when his trial counsel failed to object to the expert testimony of an educated and experienced social worker and forensic interviewer since she would have been classified as an expert by the trial court. Appellant's trial counsel did not provide deficient representation that subjected appellant to any resulting prejudice.
