WI Court of Appeals – District I
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Jahnmahn Marquis Carroll
Case No.: 2016AP2335-CR
Officials: Brennan, P.J., Kessler and Dugan, JJ.
Focus: Ineffective Assistance of Counsel
Jahnmahn Marquis Carroll appeals from a judgment of conviction, entered upon his guilty pleas, on two counts of possession with intent to deliver heroin and one count of possession of a firearm by a felon. Carroll also appeals from that portion of an order denying his postconviction motion to withdraw his pleas because of ineffective assistance of trial counsel. Carroll asserts that the circuit court erred when it declined to continue the postconviction motion hearing to take additional testimony. We reject Carroll’s challenge and affirm the judgment and order.
