WI Court of Appeals – District III
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Nicholas J. Packer
Case No.: 2018AP1964-CR
Officials: Stark, P.J., Hruz and Seidl, JJ.
Focus: Plea Withdrawal
Nicholas Packer appeals a judgment convicting him of two counts of recklessly endangering safety by use of a dangerous weapon and one count of strangulation and suffocation as domestic abuse. Packer also appeals an order denying his postconviction motion for plea withdrawal. Packer contends the circuit court erred by denying him a hearing on his plea withdrawal motion. We conclude the court properly denied the motion without a hearing because the record conclusively demonstrates that Packer was not entitled to withdraw his pleas. We therefore affirm.
