Syllabus

CRIMINAL-INEFFECTIVE ASSISTANCE-KNOWING AND INTELLIGENT PLEA - Where Appellant's plea is knowing and intelligent, Appellant's argument that his counsel was deficient for failing to communicate with him and failing to advise him of his options has no merit Appellate court may not consider affidavit containing evidence outside of the record to support ineffective assistance of counsel claim, and postconviction petition, not direct appeal, is proper vehicle for claim of ineffective assistance based on evidence outside of the trial court record.
