WI Court of Appeals – District III
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Patrick L. Donley
Case No.: 2015AP592
Officials: Stark, P.J., Hruz and Seidl, JJ.
Focus: Plea Withdrawal
Patrick Donley appeals an order denying his WIS. STAT. § 974.06 (2015-16) motion for postconviction relief. Donley argues he is entitled to withdraw his plea for three reasons: (1) ineffective assistance of both his trial counsel and postconviction counsel; (2) newly discovered evidence; and (3) in the interest of justice. We disagree and, therefore, affirm the circuit court’s order.
