WI Court of Appeals – District III

Case Name: 2016AP1027; 20161P1028; 2016AP1029

Case No.: State of Wisconsin v. Chance William Andrews

Officials: Stark, P.J., Hruz and Seidl, JJ.

Focus: Plea Agreement

Chance Andrews appeals judgments convicting him of felony murder, battery by a prisoner and threats to injure. He also appeals an order denying his motion for resentencing in which he alleged the State violated the plea agreement and Andrews’ trial counsel was ineffective for failing to object to the State’s breach. Andrews makes the same arguments on appeal. Because we conclude the State did not violate the plea agreement and there was no basis for defense counsel to object, we affirm the judgments and order.
