Criminal Procedure — ineffective assistance
James Howard appeals from an amended judgment of conviction, entered after a jury found him guilty of one count of second-degree sexual assault of an inmate by a correctional officer and one count of third-degree sexual assault, and from an order denying his amended postconviction motion for relief. In short, Howard complains that his trial counsel was constitutionally ineffective. We disagree and affirm. Not recommended for publication in the official reports.

Attorneys: For Appellant: Wasserman, Lew A., Milwaukee; For Respondent: Loebel, Karen A., Milwaukee; Wellman, Sally L., Madison
