O R D E R Defendant Fawaz Hamdan appeals his conviction after a jury trial of murder in the second degree, assault in the first degree and two counts of armed criminal action. The trial court sentenced defendant to life imprisonment on Count I, a consecutive life sentence on Count II and two consecutive sentences of 15 years each on Counts III and IV. Defendant also appeals from the judgment, denying on the merits without an evidentiary hearing, his claims in his Rule 29.15 motion. The motion court's judgment is based on findings of fact that are not clearly erroneous. No error of law appears and no jurisprudential purpose would be served by a written opinion. However, the parties have been furnished with a memorandum opinion for their information only, setting forth the facts and reasons for this order. The judgments are affirmed in accordance with Rules 30.25(b) and 84.16(b). Separate Opinion:
