1Opinion of the Court

GILBERTSON, Justice.

[¶ 1.] Applicant and appellant, Garrett Larry Lien (Lien), alleges his prior guilty plea was entered involuntarily as a result of his defense counsel’s alleged ineffective assistance in failing to properly investigate a motor vehicle accident and in failing to retain an accident reconstruction expert. Lien also contends that the prosecution failed to disclose exculpatory evidence thus denying him due process of law. Lien appeals from an order entered in the Third Judicial Circuit denying his petition for writ of habeas corpus. We affirm.
