WI Court of Appeals – District I
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Dwayne T. Freeman
Case No.: 2016AP232-CR
Officials: Brennan P.J., Kessler and Brash, JJ.
Focus: Ineffective Assistance of Counsel
Dwayne T. Freeman appeals from a judgment of conviction, following a jury trial, for armed robbery as party to the crime and as a repeater, burglary with use of a dangerous weapon as party to the crime, and possession of a firearm by a felon. See WIS. STAT. §§ 943.32(2), 943.10(1m)(a), 941.29(2)(a), 939.05, 939.62(1)(c) & 939.63(1)(b) (2013-14). He also appeals from the order denying his postconviction motion. Because the trial court properly excluded the testimony of one of Freeman’s witnesses and the postconviction court properly denied Freeman’s ineffective assistance of counsel claims without holding a hearing, we affirm.
