   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  08-2057
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Wollman, Author, with John R. Gibson and Shepherd, 
   Circuit Judges]
   Prisoner case - habeas. Noe's trial attorney did not have a conflict of
   interest and was not engaged in joint representation, and the district court
   did not err in denying Noe's claims of ineffective assistance of counsel;
   Noe also failed to show that counsel's trial strategy and decisions
   constituted ineffective assistance; even if there was a conflict, Noe make
   a knowing, voluntary and intelligent waiver of his right to conflict-free
   assistance of counsel; no error in denying motion for an evidentiary
   hearing; certificate of appealability would not be expanded to other
   issues.
