WI Court of Appeals – District IV
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. David Christopher Lee Walton
Case No.: 2017AP526-CR
Officials: Blanchard, Kloppenburg and Fitzpatrick, JJ.
Focus: Ineffective Assistance of Counsel
David Walton appeals from a judgment of conviction for armed robbery, felony theft, and misdemeanor theft, all as party to a crime and as a repeater. Walton also appeals the circuit court’s order denying his postconviction motion for a new trial. Walton argues that he received ineffective assistance of counsel due to several claimed errors at trial. He further contends that we should grant a new trial in the interests of justice. We reject Walton’s arguments and affirm.
