HENDON, J.
The issues raised by the defendant are procedurally barred as they
should have and could have been raised on direct appeal, see Byrd v. State,
597 So. 2d 252, 254 (Fla.1992) (holding that post-conviction relief cannot be
based on grounds which either were or could have been raised on direct
appeal); Morejon v. Moore, 738 So. 2d 1034 (Fla. 3d DCA 1999) (same), or
are conclusively refuted by the record, see Strickland v. Washington, 466
U.S. 668, 104 S. Ct. 2052, 80 L.Ed.2d 674 (1984).
Affirmed.
