Hammett v. State (804 So. 2d 522, 2001)

GRIFFIN, J.

Appellant, Allen A. Hammett, appeals the summary denial of his motion for post-conviction relief based on a claim of ineffective assistance of post-conviction counsel. We affirm for two reasons: first, ineffective assistance of post-conviction counsel is not a cognizable claim. Waterhouse v. State, 792 So.2d 1176, 1193 (Fla.2001); State v. Riechmann, 777 So.2d 342, 364 n. 22 (Fla.2000). Second, there is no colorable merit to the claim.

AFFIRMED.
