00-3373-CR State v. Booth
Minnesota Lawyer//September 4, 2001//
Listen to this articleKevin Booth, pro se, appeals his judgment of conviction for attempted second-degree sexual assault with a person who the defendant knows is unconscious and an order denying postconviction relief. Booth argues that: (1) he was denied his Sixth Amendment right to counsel at the preliminary hearing; and (2) his trial counsel was ineffective. Because Booth waived his right to object to the preliminary hearing and did not allege sufficient facts to warrant a Machner hearing, we affirm the conviction. State v. Machner, 92 Wis.2d 797, 285 N.W.2d 905 (Ct. App. 1979). This opinion will not be published.
