Criminal Procedure — plea withdrawal
Nickolas James Laumann appeals an order denying his motion for postconviction relief. He argues that he should be allowed to withdraw his plea because: (1) the elements of the offenses were not fully explained to him at the plea hearing; (2) he did not know the “degree” of sexual assault to which he was pleading guilty; (3) the circuit court did not advise him of his privilege against self-incrimination before asking him if it could use the complaint as a factual basis for the plea; and (4) there is newly discovered evidence that the victim recanted. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
