Sentencing — new factors

Maximilliano Mejia, pro se, appeals an order denying his postconviction motion. He argues: (1) that he should be resentenced based on a “new factor,” a previous amendment to Wis. Stat. § 302.11(1g) (2011-12); (2) that the circuit court should have told him about the change to § 302.11(1g) before he entered his plea; (3) that the circuit court misused its sentencing discretion because it did not adequately explain its decision; (4) that his sentence was unduly harsh; and (5) that his sentence should be reduced to allow him to be deported to Mexico to live with a gravely ill family member. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
