Appellant's application for reopening is denied. There exists no reasonable probability that, but for appellate counsel's claimed error on appeal, the results of the appellant's appeal would have been different. Appellant has failed to establish any prejudice through the proposed assignment of error raised in support of his claim of ineffective assistance of appellate counsel. A guilty plea waives a defendant's right to challenge his conviction on potential error except for jurisdictional issues or that the plea of guilty was less than knowing, intelligent, and voluntary.
