By: Derek Hawkins//July 12, 2016//
Listen to this articleWI Court of Appeals – District II
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Michael J. Wedge
Case No.: 2015AP803-CR; 2015AP804-CR
Officials: Reilly, P.J., Gundrum and Hagedorn, JJ.
Focus: Pleas & Sentencing – Inaccurate Information – Court Error
In these consolidated matters, Michael J. Wegge appeals from judgments of conviction entered upon his guilty pleas to robbery by threat of force and armed robbery and from an order denying his postconviction motion which requested resentencing on grounds that the sentencing court relied on inaccurate information. The postconviction court determined that the circuit court relied on inaccurate information at sentencing, but that the error was harmless. Because we conclude that the State met its burden to prove that the sentencing court’s reliance on inaccurate information was harmless, we affirm.
