Franks Hearing – Plea Withdrawal

2014AP1456-CR State of Wisconsin V. Allan Dean Owens

Allan Owens, pro se, appeals orders denying his postconviction motions. Owens argues the circuit court erred by denying his request for a Franks hearing to challenge the search warrant. Owens further contends the circuit court erroneously exercised its discretion by denying his motions for plea withdrawal and reconsideration. Owens also claims for the first time on appeal that his appellate counsel abandoned him. We reject these arguments and affirm the orders.

Decision

Affirmed. Per Curiam.
