WI Court of Appeals – District III
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Anthony D. Nemetz
Case No.: 2020AP1034-CR
Officials: Stark, P.J., Hruz and Seidl, JJ.
Focus: Court Error –DNA Evidence – Statutory Notice
Anthony Nemetz appeals from a judgment convicting him of multiple criminal offenses and an order denying his postconviction motion. Nemetz claims he is entitled to a new trial based upon the State’s failure to provide notice pursuant to WIS. STAT. § 971.23(9) (2019-20), that it would be using DNA evidence at trial. We conclude the State’s failure to provide statutory notice was harmless error and therefore affirm.
