2 Opinion of the Court 22-10792
PER CURIAM:
Harrison Garcia appeals the denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2255
motion to vacate, set aside, or correct his sentence. In his submis-
sions to this court, Garcia raises—or purports to raise—a multitude
of claims. The bulk of Garcia’s appeal alleges that his pre-trial and
trial counsel rendered ineffective assistance in violation of Strick-
land v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668 (1984). Garcia contends that his
counsel fell short of the constitutional mark by failing to secure wit-
nesses, delaying requests for continuances, providing unsound ad-
vice regarding a mid-trial plea offer, inviting prejudicial comments
from a witness, declining to challenge evidence of social media
posts and controlled drug purchases, and neglecting to marshal an
entrapment defense. Garcia also argues that the cumulative effect
of these errors undermined the reliability of his trial and warrants
relief. Finally, Garcia claims that the district court violated his due
process rights by denying two motions for continuances of suppres-
sion hearings.
Having carefully reviewed the record on appeal and with the
benefit of oral argument, we find no reversible error in the district
court’s meticulously drafted order. Accordingly, we affirm the de-
nial of Garcia’s § 2255 motion.
AFFIRMED.
