WI Court of Appeals – District III

Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Robert L. Brown

Case No.: 2018AP1958

Officials: Stark, P.J., Hruz and Seidl, JJ.

Focus: Sentencing Modification

Robert Brown, pro se, appeals an order denying his motion for sentence modification. Brown claims there are two new factors justifying a reduction in his sentence. Specifically, he asserts the sentencing court was unaware that: (1) Brown would not be able to receive sex offender treatment while he was incarcerated; and (2) the fifteen-year period of initial incarceration would exceed Brown’s life expectancy. We reject Brown’s arguments and, therefore, affirm the circuit court’s order.
