Wisconsin Court of Appeals
Criminal
Criminal Procedure — plea withdrawal — ineffective assistance
Jamal Desmar Williams appeals from a judgment of conviction entered upon his guilty plea to one count of armed robbery. He also appeals from a postconviction order denying his motion to withdraw his guilty plea. He claims his trial counsel gave him ineffective assistance and he entered his guilty plea involuntarily because, he alleges, his trial counsel promised that he would receive five years in prison if he pled guilty. The circuit court rejected his claims, and we affirm. This opinion will not be published.
