Per Curiam.

[¶1] Mark Anthony Butts appealed from an order denying his application for post-conviction relief. Butts argues the district court erred in denying his application because he received ineffective assistance from his trial counsel and from his counsel on an unsuccessful motion to withdraw his guilty plea in State v. Butts , 2016 ND 226, 888 N.W.2d 206. Because the courts findings of fact are not clearly erroneous and support its conclusion that Butts received effective assistance of counsel, we summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2).
