Wisconsin Court of Appeals
Criminal
Criminal Procedure — ineffective assistance — new trials
Tai J. Minor appeals from an order denying his Wis. Stat. § 974.06 (2011-12) postconviction motion for a new trial or, in the alternative, a sentence modification. We conclude that Minor has failed to establish the ineffective assistance of either trial or postconviction/appellate counsel, and that the trial court properly exercised its discretion in determining that Minor did not demonstrate a new factor warranting sentence modification. We also decline to order a new trial in the interest of justice. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
Dist II, Racine County, Ptacek, J., Per Curiam
