Criminal Procedure — habeas corpus

Gerald Porter appeals an order denying his petition for writ of habeas corpus. The circuit court’s written decision properly analyzes and disposes of the issues raised by Porter’s petition. Therefore, we affirm for the reasons explained in the circuit court’s decision. See Wis. Ct. App. IOP VI (5)(a) (Nov. 30, 2009) (“When the trial court’s decision was based upon a written opinion … the panel may … make reference thereto, and affirm on the basis of that opinion.”). A copy of the circuit court’s decision is attached to this per curiam and incorporated by reference. Order affirmed. This opinion will not be published.
