Listen to this articleWI Court of Appeals – District I
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Richard W. Littlejohn, Jr.,
Case No.: 2018AP1059-CR
Officials: Brash, P.J., Kloppenburg and Dugan, JJ.
Focus: Abuse of Discretion – Exclusion of Evidence – Testimony
Richard W. Littlejohn, Jr., appeals from a judgment, entered upon a jury’s verdict, convicting him on two counts of first-degree intentional homicide. Littlejohn argues that the trial court violated his right to present a defense when it excluded a witness from testifying. We conclude that the trial court did not erroneously exercise its discretion in excluding the witness’s testimony, nor did the witness’s exclusion violate Littlejohn’s rights. Therefore, we affirm the judgment.
