Sexually Violent Persons – discharge — new trials
John Whiteman appeals a judgment denying his petition for discharge from confinement as a sexually violent person. He argues that: (1) he is entitled to a new trial in the interest of justice because the real controversy was not fully tried due to misleading, contradictory, and unclear jury instructions; and (2) the State failed to present sufficient evidence to support the verdict. We reject these arguments, and affirm the judgment. This opinion will not be published.

Dist IV, Dane County, Colas, J., Per Curiam
Attorneys: For Appellant: FitzGerald, Patricia A., Mt. Horeb; For Respondent: Ozanne, Ismael R., Madison; O’Neil, Aaron R., Madison
