This slip opinion is subject to revision and may not reflect the final opinion adopted by the Court. Opinion Missouri Court of Appeals Western District Case Style: State of Missouri, Respondent, v. Llewellyn Richard, Appellant. Case Number: 50807 and 53439 Handdown Date: 03/17/1998 Appeal From: Circuit Court of Jackson County, Hon. Jay A. Daugherty Counsel for Appellant: Susan L. Hogan Counsel for Respondent: Fernando Bermudez Opinion Summary: None Citation: Opinion Author: PER CURIAM Opinion Vote: AFFIRMED. Lowenstein, P.J., Breckenridge and Hanna, J.J., concur. Opinion: ORDER Llewellyn Richard appeals from his convictions of two counts of robbery in the first degree, section 569.020, RSMo 1994, and one count of robbery in the second degree, section 569.030, RSMo 1994, for which he received concurrent sentences of twenty-five years for each first degree robbery conviction and fifteen years for the second degree robbery conviction. Mr. Richard contends that the trial court erred by failing to define "dangerous instrument" in the jury instructions on first degree robbery. Mr. Richard also appeals from the denial, after an evidentiary hearing, of his Rule 29.15 motion for post-conviction relief, claiming ineffective assistance of counsel in that his trial counsel failed to call an alibi witness whose testimony would have exonerated Mr. Richard. The judgments of the trial court and the motion court are affirmed. Rules 84.16(b) and 30.25(b). Separate Opinion: None
