Wisconsin Court of Appeals
Criminal
Criminal Procedure – ex parte communications
APPEALS from an order of the circuit court for Shawano County: WILLIAM F. KUSSEL, JR., Judge. Affirmed and cause remanded with directions.
David Turner appeals an order clarifying the date of his offenses and denying his motion to correct the 1998 judgment of conviction as to the length of probation imposed. He argues: (1) the court violated his due process rights by engaging in ex parte communication regarding the dates of the offenses; and (2) the judgment does not reflect the actual sentence imposed in 1998. We reject these arguments and affirm the order. We remand the matter to the circuit court clerk to amend the judgment to correct an unrelated error.
