1Opinion of the CourtParskey, J.
Following a conviction of robbery in the first degree in a jury trial, the petitioner, Michael D. Williams, petitioned for a writ of habeas corpus in the Superior Court, claiming that he had not received the effective assistance of counsel. After a full evidentiary hearing and a review of the entire trial transcript, the court denied his petition, from which decision the petitioner appeals. The petitioner bases his claim of ineffective assistance of qounsel on his attorney’s failure to object to evidence offered by the state in three instances at trial. We find no error.
