Criminal Procedure — ineffective assistance

Robert Anthony Martinez appeals the judgment, entered after a court trial, convicting him of one count of failure to comply with an officer’s attempt to take a person into custody and one count of misdemeanor disorderly conduct, domestic abuse, contrary to Wis. Stat. §§ 946.415(2), 947.01(1) and 968.075(1)(a) (2011-12). Martinez also appeals the order denying his postconviction motion alleging that his trial counsel was ineffective. He claims trial counsel gave him ineffective assistance during plea bargaining, which resulted in Martinez rejecting a favorable plea offer. We disagree and affirm. This opinion will not be published.
