Description
Order Petitioner Alton Jones appeals pro se the district court's denial of his application for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254, alleging that there was insufficient evidence to convict him and that he received ineffective assistance of counsel. Judge Holderman issued a well-reasoned and thorough memorandum opinion that considered all of the claims Jones advanced. Our review of the record and the briefs leads us to conclude that Judge Holderman correctly decided all of the issues Jones raised. We therefore AFFIRM the judgment based on the memorandum opinion, attached hereto as exhibit A. We add that because Jones was not entitled to counsel on his discretionary appeal to the Illinois Supreme Court, See Ross v. Moffitt, 417 U.S. 600, 610 (1973) he is barred from claiming ineffective assistance of counsel.
