1Opinion of the Court

ROBERTS, J.,

for the Court:

¶ 1. L.D. Foxworth was convicted of child molestation and sentenced to fifteen years in the Mississippi Department of Corrections (MDOC). He appealed, but we upheld his conviction in Foxworth v. State, 982 So.2d 453, 454-55 (¶ 1) (Miss.Ct.App.2007). He subsequently filed a motion for post-conviction relief (PCR) after first obtaining the Mississippi Supreme *360Court’s permission. However, after conducting an evidentiary hearing, the Marion County Circuit Court dismissed Fox-worth’s PCR motion. Aggrieved, Fox-worth appeals. Finding no error, we affirm.
