1Opinion of the Court

FRANK, Judge.

David McPherson was convicted of committing four crimes. Prior to trial, McPherson filed a motion seeking to terminate his appointed counsel relying upon claimed irreconcilable conflicts, the competency of his counsel and his counsel’s failure to pursue witnesses and evidence offered by McPherson. He raises two issues on appeal, only one of which warrants consideration. The trial court summarily denied McPherson’s motion referring to an earlier denial of a motion for continuance because of McPherson’s failure to disclose witnesses.
