RAY, Judge.
After a bench trial, Joshua Keith Young was convicted of hijacking a motor vehicle (OCGA § 16-5-44.1 (b)); armed robbery (OCGA § 16-8-41 (a)); two counts of aggravated assault (OCGA § 16-5-21 (b) (1), (2)); and three counts of possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime (OCGA § 16-11-106 (b)).1 He appeals from the denial of his motion for new trial contending that the trial court erred in failing to find that he received ineffective assistance of counsel. For the reasons that follow, we disagree and affirm.
Young does not contest the sufficiency of the evidence…
