Criminal Procedure — ineffective assistance

Isaiah N. Triggs appeals the judgment convicting him of first-degree reckless homicide, as party to a crime, contrary to Wis. Stat. §§ 940.02(1) and 939.05 (2011-12). He also appeals the order denying his postconviction motion. On appeal, Triggs argues that the trial court erred in denying his postconviction motion without a hearing because: (1) trial counsel was ineffective; (2) the plea colloquy was defective; and (3) in the alternative, the trial court erroneously exercised its discretion at sentencing. We affirm. Not recommended for publication in the official reports.
