He filed a Rule 24.035 motion, which was amended by appointed counsel. The motion court denied his motion without a hearing.

We have reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal and conclude the trial court's determination is not clearly erroneous. Rule 24.035(k). Movant's allegations are conclusively refuted by the guilty plea transcript. Rule 24.035(h). Furthermore, Movant completely fails to allege facts entitling him to relief. Tolen v.
