1Opinion of the Court

EBEL, Circuit Judge.

Petitioner-Appellant Dana Drew Hawkins was convicted in 1984 of aggravated battery, rape, and aggravated sodomy by a jury in Kansas. He exhausted his state remedies, and now appeals from the district court’s order denying federal habeas relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2254. Hawkins claims that he was denied effective assistance of counsel at trial and on appeal, and that he was denied his right to confront and cross-examine the victim at trial. We exercise jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1291 & 2253 and affirm.
