Plea Withdrawal
By: Derek Hawkins//August 11, 2020//
Listen to this articleWI Court of Appeals – District III
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Nathaniel Lee Mattson
Case No.: 2019AP201-CR
Officials: SEIDL, J.
Focus: Plea Withdrawal
Nathaniel Mattson appeals a judgment of conviction, entered upon his guilty pleas, to one count of domestic battery and one count of disorderly conduct, and an order denying his postconviction motion for plea withdrawal. Mattson contends his guilty pleas were not knowing, intelligent, and voluntary because he mistakenly believed that the decision to either take the State’s plea offer or go to trial was a choice that belonged to his counsel and not to himself. We conclude the circuit court’s refusal to allow his plea withdrawal did not result in manifest injustice. We therefore affirm.
