Syllabus

The trial court did not err when it overruled appellant's petition for postconviction relief/motion to vacate or set aside sentence. Appellant failed to produce any additional evidence from outside of the record in support of his claims that he was denied the effective assistance of counsel and that he was tried and convicted without the benefit of counsel with no proper waiver executed. The trial court therefore properly concluded that appellant's claims were barred by res judicata. The record does not support appellant's contention that the trial court improperly granted summary judgment against him the State never filed a motion for summary judgment. Judgment affirmed.
