Wisconsin Court of Appeals
Criminal
Sentencing – modification — new factors
David Lawrence appeals the judgment of conviction and sentence for domestic abuse battery and domestic abuse disorderly conduct, and the order denying his postconviction motion for sentence modification because of a new factor. Lawrence contends that additional information regarding the severity of his mental health issues and the nature of his medication regimen presented new factors that justified modifying his sentence by removing the thirty-day jail sentence that the circuit court imposed as a condition of Lawrence’s probation. The circuit court found that the additional information was not sufficient to warrant the sentence modification that Lawrence requested. I agree with the circuit court, and therefore affirm. This opinion will not be published.
