Jeffrey Paul THOMPSON, Jr., Appellant, v. STATE of Missouri, Respondent. WD 81139 Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District. ORDER FILED: December 18, 2018 Motion for Rehearing and/or Transfer to Supreme Court Denied January 29, 2019 Susan L. Hogan, Appellate Defender, Kansas City, MO, Attorney for Appellant. Joshua D. Hawley, Attorney General, and Gregory L. Barnes, Assistant Attorney General, Jefferson City, MO, Attorneys for Respondent. Before Division Two: Alok Ahuja, Presiding Judge, and Thomas H. Newton and Mark D. Pfeiffer, Judges Order [MAJORITY — Per Curiam:] Per Curiam: Mr. Jeffrey Thompson appeals from the judgment of the Circuit Court of Jackson County, Missouri, denying his Rule 29.15 motion for post-conviction relief following an evidentiary hearing. Mr. Thompson contends that his trial counsel was ineffective for permitting inadmissible hearsay evidence to be presented at his trial and that the admission of this evidence prejudiced him. After a thorough review of the record and existing case precedent, we conclude that there is no precedential value in publishing our opinion. Thus, we have instead provided a memorandum of law to the parties explaining our affirmance of the judgment. Affirmed. Rule 84.16(b).
