WI Supreme Court
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Keimonte Antonie Wilson, Sr.
Case No.:2017 WI 63
Focus: Postconviction relief
Petitioner, Keimonte Antonie Wilson, Sr. (“Wilson”), seeks review of a court of appeals decision affirming a circuit court judgment of conviction and order denying his postconviction motion. The court of appeals determined that the circuit court correctly interpreted the statutory procedure for subpoenaing witnesses in a criminal case. Additionally, it concluded that Wilson did not receive ineffective assistance of counsel because he was not prejudiced by the failure to obtain a witness’s testimony at a suppression hearing.
Reversed and remanded
Dissent: Ziegler, Gableman
Concurring:
