Syllabus

Guilty plea; ineffective assistance of counsel; statutory speedy trial; judicial bias or intimidation. Judgment affirmed. Trial counsel was not ineffective by failing to raise the issue of statutory speedy trial. The record demonstrates that the trial date was tolled for much of the case because of the defendant's numerous requests for continuances and his failure to respond to the State's request for reciprocal discovery. The record further demonstrates that the defendant's guilty plea was knowingly, intelligently, and voluntarily entered into. There was no indication whatsoever of judicial bias or intimidation.
