WI Court of Appeals – District I
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Alvin James Jemison, Jr.
Case No.: 2021AP002207-CR
Officials: Brash, C.J.
Focus: Postconviction Relief – Ineffective Assistance of Counsel – Evidence
Alvin James Jemison, Jr. appeals from a judgment convicting him of second-degree sexual assault of an unconscious person. He challenges that conviction on three grounds—namely, that the State failed to establish that he had sexual intercourse with the victim; that the circuit court erred in permitting the State to introduce certain other-acts evidence of prior convictions; and that the circuit court also erred in denying, without a hearing, his postconviction claim that he received ineffective assistance of counsel at trial. The appeals court disagrees with Jemison on all three issues.
Affirmed.
Decided 07/18/23
