Wisconsin Court of Appeals
Criminal
Criminal Procedure — appointed counsel — plea withdrawal
Emmanuel M. McCotry, pro se, appeals from an order denying his Wis. Stat. § 974.06 (2011-12) motion for postconviction relief. McCotry, who was granted an evidentiary hearing on his motion by the circuit court, argues that the circuit court: (1) erroneously exercised its discretion when it did not refer McCotry to the state public defender for an indigency determination and the appointment of counsel; and (2) erred when it determined that McCotry’s guilty pleas were knowingly, intelligently, and voluntarily made. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
Dist I, Milwaukee County, Sankovitz, J., Per Curiam
Attorneys: For Appellant: McCotry, Emmanuel M., pro se; For Respondent: Loebel, Karen A., Milwaukee; Tarver, Sandra L., Madison
