1Opinion of the Court

REID, Associate Judge:

Appellant Michael Louis entered an Alford plea, 1 to a single count of first-degree sexual abuse in violation of D.C.Code § 22-4102(2) (1996). 2 During sentencing proceedings, the trial judge imposed a sentence of eight to twenty-four years of incarceration. Subsequently, Mr. Louis filed a motion under D.C.Code § 23-110 (2001) to set aside the judgment of conviction and to withdraw his guilty plea. The trial court denied his motion. We affirm the trial court’s judgment of conviction, and its denial of Mr. Louis’ post-conviction motion.
