WI Court of Appeals – District I

Case Name: State of Wisconsin V. Larry Davis

Case No.: 2016AP1416-CR

Officials: Neubauer, C.J., Gundrum and Hagedorn, JJ.

Focus: Court Error – Sentencing Guidelines

Larry Davis appeals from his judgment of conviction and the denial of his postconviction motion. He contends the circuit court erred in denying his request for an additional twenty-three days of sentence credit and in ordering him to maintain “absolute sobriety” as a condition of extended supervision. We agree Davis is entitled to the sentence credit he seeks and reverse on that issue, but we conclude the court did not err in ordering absolute sobriety and affirm on that issue.
