EDWARDS, J.
Appellant, Israel Torres, appeals the initial order summarily denying Grounds Three, Four, and Five, and the subsequent order denying Grounds One, Two, and Six following an evidentiary hearing, of his Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850 postconviction motion. We have carefully considered the points raised on appeal and have thoroughly reviewed the record on appeal, including Appellant’s motion with attachments, the evidentiary hearing transcript, and the two orders with their attachments that denied his motion. We affirm the postconviction court’s ruling that Grounds Three, Four, and Five were conclusively refuted by the attached records, and we find that the denial of Grounds One, Two, and Six is supported by competent substantial evidence and the correct application of controlling law. We find Appellant’s claims that he was prejudiced by ineffective assistance of counsel to be meritless. Accordingly, we affirm the postconviction court’s thorough, well-reasoned orders in all respects.
AFFIRMED.
