Highlight

A district court does not err in denying a petitioner's application for post-conviction relief based on ineffective assistance of counsel when counsel's performance did not fall below an objective standard of reasonableness.
A district court does not abuse its discretion when it excludes evidence, which trial counsel was not previously aware of, in an evidentiary hearing on post-conviction relief based on ineffective assistance of counsel.
