Wisconsin Court of Appeals
Criminal
Criminal Procedure – right to be present
APPEALS from judgments and orders of the circuit court for Milwaukee County: MEL FLANAGAN, Judge. Affirmed.
Marvin Dewayne Clements appeals from judgments of convictions, entered upon a jury’s verdicts, on twenty-five charges. He also appeals from the trial court’s orders denying his postconviction motion for a new trial. Clements contends that he has new evidence warranting a new trial, and that his removal from the courtroom for disruptive behavior violated his constitutional and statutory rights to be present during voir dire and the trial. We agree with the trial court’s rejection of these claims, so we affirm.
DISTRICT I; Milwaukee County; MEL FLANAGAN, Judge; Curley, P.J., Kessler and Brennan, JJ.
