Wisconsin Court of Appeals
Criminal
Criminal Procedure — right to jury trial – waiver — exculpatory evidence
Mark Coleman appeals a judgment convicting him of battery by a prisoner contrary to Wis. Stat. § 940.20(1) (2009-10),[1] as well an order denying his postconviction motion for a new trial. On appeal, Coleman argues that he should be granted a new trial because his waiver of the right to a jury trial was not knowing, voluntary, and intelligent and because a surveillance video of the battery incident was improperly deleted by the State. We affirm the judgment and order of the circuit court. This opinion will not be published.
