WI Court of Appeals – District I

Case Name: State of Wisconsin ex rel. Arthur J. Fariole v. Brian Foster, Warden

Case No.: 2015AP512

Officials: Brennan, P.J., Brash and Dugan, JJ.

Focus: Ineffective Assistance of Counsel

Arthur J. Fariole, pro se, appeals from a circuit court order denying his petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Fariole’s petition alleged that the attorney who represented him at his parole revocation hearing provided constitutionally deficient representation in six ways. On appeal, Fariole seeks a new parole hearing or a Machner hearing concerning his petition. We affirm the circuit court’s order denying Fariole’s habeas corpus petition.
