WI Court of Appeals – District II
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Jason E. Anderson
Case No.: 2015AP2056-CR
Officials: Reilly, P.J., Gundrum and Hagedorn, JJ.
Focus: Ineffective Assistance of Counsel
Jason Anderson appeals from a judgment convicting him of first-degree intentional homicide in the shooting death of his wife and of being a felon in possession of a firearm. Anderson also appeals from an order denying, without an evidentiary hearing, his postconviction motion
alleging ineffective assistance of counsel. We conclude that the circuit court properly exercised its discretion when it denied the postconviction motion without an evidentiary hearing because the record conclusively demonstrates that trial counsel’s representation was neither deficient nor prejudicial. We affirm.
