Criminal Procedure — ineffective assistance — deliberate charging delay

Agustin Velez appeals an order that denied his postconviction motion filed under Wis. Stat. § 974.06 (2011-12). He also appeals an order that denied his motion to reconsider. He alleges that his trial counsel was ineffective in pursuing his claim that the State deliberately delayed charging him with first-degree intentional homicide to avoid juvenile court jurisdiction. He further alleges that he has newly discovered evidence to support his claim of deliberate charging delay. The circuit court rejected his claims without a hearing. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
