WI Court of Appeals – District III

Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Jeffrey J. Wickman

Case No.: 2020AP1184

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

Focus: Ineffective Assistance of Counsel

Jeffrey Wickman, pro se, appeals from an order denying without a hearing his postconviction motion for plea withdrawal based on alleged ineffective assistance of counsel or, in the alternative, for resentencing based upon an illegal sentence. We conclude that the circuit court properly denied Wickman’s plea withdrawal motion without a hearing, but that Wickman was entitled to resentencing. Accordingly, we affirm in part, reverse in part, and remand for further proceedings.
