1Opinion of the Court

KELLY, Judge.

Movant-Appellant, David Wayne Litton, appeals from the trial court’s denial of his Rule 27.26 motion without an evidentiary hearing by the Circuit Court of Washington County.

This court’s review is limited, pursuant to Rule 27.26(¡), to a determination of whether the findings, conclusions, and judgment of the trial court are clearly erroneous. The judgment of the trial court is only clearly erroneous if, after reviewing the record, this court is left with the definite and firm impression that a mistake has been made. Hutchins v. State, 624 S.W.2d 191, 192[1] (Mo.App.1981).
