Syllabus

Order dismissing charge based on finding of incompetence to stand trial affirmed. Appellant failed to prove ineffective assistance of counsel in seeking second competency evaluation because she does not contest the psychologist's observations or conclusions and did not establish a reasonable probability of a different outcome if her counsel acted differently. Trial court did not err by finding appellant incompetent to stand trial because the second evaluation report was reliable and credible evidence supporting the trial court's decision.
