WI Court of Appeals – District IV
Case Name: City of Madison v. Jacob Ong
Case No.: 2015AP1176
Officials: Lundsten, J.
Focus: Sufficiency of Evidence
Jacob Ong appeals, pro se, the circuit court’s judgment convicting him, after a jury trial, of an ordinance violation for theft of a letter. Ong also appeals a post-judgment order denying his motion to set aside the jury’s verdict. Ong challenges the sufficiency of the evidence. He also makes other arguments, most of which relate to his defense theory that he mistakenly took the letter. For the reasons below, I affirm.
