Trial counsel's decision to not present evidence at sentencing was trial strategy, not ineffective assistance. Trial court properly considered victim's statement at sentencing. Appellate court lacks jurisdiction to consider trial court's decision on postconviction relief because appellant did not file a notice of appeal from that judgment.
