    James R. LAKE, Appellant, v. STATE of Missouri, Respondent.
    No. ED 106438
    Missouri Court of Appeals, Eastern District, DIVISION FOUR.
    FILED: March 19, 2019
    Alexandria Shah, 1010 Market St., Suite 1100, St. Louis, MO 63101, for appellant.
    Justin Moody, P.O. Box 899, Jefferson City, MO 65102, for respondent.
    Before Kurt S. Odenwald, P.J., Gary M. Gaertner, Jr., J., and Colleen Dolan, J.
    ORDER
   PER CURIAM

James R. Lake ("Lake") appeals the motion court's denial of his Rule 24.035 motion without an evidentiary hearing. Lake pleaded guilty to first-degree assault and first-degree robbery and was sentenced to two concurrent sentences of twenty years in prison. In his sole point on appeal, Lake argues that the motion court clearly erred in denying his Rule 24.035 motion without an evidentiary hearing because plea counsel was ineffective for failing to properly advise Lake about a self-defense claim. The record clearly refutes Lake's claim that his guilty plea was involuntary or unknowing.

We have reviewed the briefs of the parties and the record on appeal and find no error of law. 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 judgment of the trial court is affirmed in accordance with Rule 84.16(b).
