Motor Vehicles – OWI — ineffective assistance — new trials
Michael Luedtke appeals a judgment of conviction for seventh-offense OWI, and an order denying his postconviction motion.[1] Luedtke argues his trial counsel provided ineffective assistance, and he also seeks a new trial in the interest of justice. Luedtke contends he is entitled to a new trial because one of the State’s witnesses improperly testified as to Luedtke’s untruthfulness and that another witness improperly testified Luedtke was on probation and had been in prison. We reject Luedtke’s arguments, and affirm. This opinion will not be published.
