Ulysses Drake, Jr., appeals from the summary denial of his motion for postcon-viction relief filed pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850. We affirm without discussion the trial court’s denial of relief to Drake on all the issues raised in his original motion for postconviction relief.
