974.06(3)(d)
(d) Determine the issues and make findings of fact and conclusions of law. If the court finds that the judgment was rendered without jurisdiction, or that the sentence imposed was not authorized by law or is otherwise open to collateral attack, or that there has been such a denial or infringement of the constitutional rights of the person as to render the judgment vulnerable to collateral attack, the court shall vacate and set the judgment aside and shall discharge the person or resentence him or her or grant a new trial or correct the sentence as may appear appropriate.
974.06(4)
(4) All grounds for relief available to a person under this section must be raised in his or her original, supplemental or amended motion. Any ground finally adjudicated or not so raised, or knowingly, voluntarily and intelligently waived in the proceeding that resulted in the conviction or sentence or in any other proceeding the person has taken to secure relief may not be the basis for a subsequent motion, unless the court finds a ground for relief asserted which for sufficient reason was not asserted or was inadequately raised in the original, supplemental or amended motion.
974.06(5)
(5) A court may entertain and determine such motion without requiring the production of the prisoner at the hearing. The motion may be heard under s.

(6) Proceedings under this section shall be considered civil in nature, and the burden of proof shall be upon the person.
974.06(7)
(7) An appeal may be taken from the order entered on the motion as from a final judgment.
974.06(8)
(8) A petition for a writ of habeas corpus or an action seeking that remedy in behalf of a person who is authorized to apply for relief by motion under this section shall not be entertained if it appears that the applicant has failed to apply for relief, by motion, to the court which sentenced the person, or that the court has denied the person relief, unless it also appears that the remedy by motion is inadequate or ineffective to test the legality of his or her detention.

974.06 Annotation
Plea bargaining as a basis for withdrawal of a guilty plea and a new trial are discussed. State v. Wolfe,
46 Wis. 2d 478,
175 N.W.2d 216 (1970).
974.06 Annotation
When the defendant makes a pro se motion within the time limited but counsel is not appointed until later, the court should hear the motion. A guilty plea can be withdrawn as a matter of right if it is established that: 1) there was a violation of a relevant constitutional right; 2) the violation caused the defendant to plead guilty; and 3) at the time of the guilty plea the defendant was unaware of potential constitutional challenges to the prosecution's case because of that violation. State v. Carlson,
48 Wis. 2d 222,
179 N.W.2d 851 (1970).
974.06 Annotation
A defendant's contention that he concluded he was going to be sentenced under the Youth Service Act for no more than 2 years, whereas a 20-year sentence was imposed, constituted no grounds for withdrawal of the guilty plea when trial defense counsel asserted at the postconviction hearing that such a sentence was a desired objective but that no agreement had been made with the district attorney that it could be achieved nor representation made to his client that the lesser sentence would be imposed. State v. Froelich,
49 Wis. 2d 551,
182 N.W.2d 267 (1971).
974.06 Annotation
The sentencing judge is not disqualified from conducting a hearing on a postconviction motion to withdraw a guilty plea unless the judge has interjected himself or herself into the plea bargaining to the extent that he or she may become a material witness or may otherwise be disqualified. Rahhal v. State,
52 Wis. 2d 144,
187 N.W.2d 800 (1971).
974.06 Annotation
The defendant could not withdraw his guilty plea after entering a plea bargain for a recommendation of a one-year sentence by the prosecutor when the presentence report recommended 2 years and the defendant did not object. Farrar v. State,
52 Wis. 2d 651,
191 N.W.2d 214 (1971).
974.06 Annotation
Postconviction procedure cannot be used as a substitute for appeal. Trial errors such as insufficiency of evidence and instructions and errors in the admission of evidence cannot be raised. State v. Langston,
53 Wis. 2d 228,
191 N.W.2d 713 (1971).
974.06 Annotation
A motion under this section is not a substitute for a motion for a new trial and can be made only after the defendant has exhausted his or her direct remedies that consist of a motion for a new trial and appeal. The motion is limited in scope to matters of jurisdiction or of constitutional dimensions and must not be used to raise issues disposed of by a previous appeal. Peterson v. State,
54 Wis. 2d 370,
195 N.W.2d 837 (1972).
974.06 Annotation
No hearing need be granted when the record refutes a defendant's claims and they can be found to have no merit. Nelson v. State,
54 Wis. 2d 489,
195 N.W.2d 629 (1972).
974.06 Annotation
This section is not a remedy for an ordinary rehearing or reconsideration of sentencing on its merits. Only constitutional and jurisdictional questions may be raised. This section may be used to review sentences and convictions regardless of the date of prosecution. State ex rel. Warren v. County Court,
54 Wis. 2d 613,
197 N.W.2d 1 (1972).
974.06 Annotation
A petition under this section is limited to jurisdictional and constitutional issues. It is not a substitute for a motion for a new trial. Vara v. State,
56 Wis. 2d 390,
202 N.W.2d 10 (1972).
974.06 Annotation
A question of sufficiency of the evidence cannot be reached by a motion under this section. The complete failure to produce any evidence could be reached, because conviction without evidence of guilt would be a denial of due process. Weber v. State,
59 Wis. 2d 371,
208 N.W.2d 396 (1973).
974.06 Annotation
A motion for postconviction relief may be denied without a hearing if the defendant fails to allege sufficient facts to raise a question of fact or presents only conclusory allegations, or the record conclusively demonstrates that he or she is not entitled to relief. If multiple grounds for relief are claimed, particularized rulings as to each are to be made in denying the motion without an evidentiary hearing. Smith v. State,
60 Wis. 2d 373,
210 N.W.2d 678 (1973).
974.06 Annotation
In view of s. 971.31 (2), objection to an arrest, insufficiency of the complaint, or the use of illegal means to obtain evidence may not be raised for the first time under this section. State v. Kuecey,
60 Wis. 2d 677,
211 N.W.2d 453 (1973).
974.06 Annotation
When a defendant, ordered to be present at a hearing under this section, escapes from prison, the court may summarily dismiss the petition. State v. John,
60 Wis. 2d 730,
211 N.W.2d 463 (1973).
974.06 Annotation
The supreme court does not encourage the assignment of members of the prosecutor's staff to review petitions for postconviction relief. Holmes v. State,
63 Wis. 2d 389,
217 N.W.2d 657 (1974).
974.06 Annotation
Facts must be alleged in the petition and the petitioner cannot stand on conclusory allegations, hoping to supplement them at a hearing. Levesque v. State,
63 Wis. 2d 412,
217 N.W.2d 317 (1974).
974.06 Annotation
The failure to establish a factual basis for a guilty plea is of constitutional dimensions and is the type of error that can be reached by a s. 974.06 motion. Loop v. State,
65 Wis. 2d 499,
222 N.W.2d 694 (1974).
974.06 Annotation
The necessity or desirability of the presence of the defendant at a hearing on postconviction motions is a matter of discretion for the trial court and depends upon the existence of substantial issues of fact. There was no abuse of discretion in the denial of defendant's motion to be present at the hearing on his s. 974.06 motions when only issues of law were raised and defense counsel had other opportunities to consult with the defendant. Sanders v. State,
69 Wis. 2d 242,
230 N.W.2d 845 (1975).
974.06 Annotation
Although the defendant's allegation had no support in the record of the original proceedings, a silent record did not conclusively show that the defendant was entitled to no relief. When the defendant refuted his earlier statement that no promises were made to induce his confession other than that he would not have to go to jail that day and alleged a promise of probation, an issue of fact was presented requiring an evidentiary hearing. Zuehl v. State,
69 Wis. 2d 355,
230 N.W.2d 673 (1975).
974.06 Annotation
Procedures made applicable by the postconviction relief statute shall be the exclusive procedure utilized to seek correction of an allegedly unlawful sentence. Spannuth v. State,
70 Wis. 2d 362,
234 N.W.2d 79 (1975).
974.06 Annotation
State courts do not have subject-matter jurisdiction over postconviction motions of federal prisoners not in custody under the sentence of a state court. State v. Theoharopoulos,
72 Wis. 2d 327,
240 N.W.2d 635 (1976).
974.06 Annotation
An issue considered on direct review cannot be reconsidered on a motion under this section. Beamon v. State,
93 Wis. 2d 215,
286 N.W.2d 592 (1980).
974.06 Annotation
A court had no jurisdiction under this section to hear a challenge of the computation of prisoner's good time. Habeas corpus is the proper avenue of relief. State v. Johnson,
101 Wis. 2d 698,
305 N.W.2d 188 (Ct. App. 1981).
974.06 Annotation
The power of a circuit court to stay the execution of a sentence for legal cause does not include the power to stay the sentence while a collateral attack is being made on the conviction by a habeas corpus proceeding in federal court. State v. Shumate,
107 Wis. 2d 460,
319 N.W.2d 834 (1982).
974.06 Annotation
The burden of proof under sub. (6) is clear and convincing evidence. State v. Walberg,
109 Wis. 2d 96,
325 N.W.2d 687 (1982).
974.06 Annotation
A defendant's uncorroborated allegations will not support a claim of ineffective representation when counsel is unavailable to rebut the claim of ineffectiveness. State v. Lukasik,
115 Wis. 2d 134,
340 N.W.2d 62 (Ct. App. 1983).
974.06 Annotation
Formal violation of s. 971.08 may not be remedied under this section. Motions under this section are limited to jurisdictional and constitutional matters. State v. Carter,
131 Wis. 2d 69,
389 N.W.2d 1 (1986).
974.06 Annotation
While a trial court's failure to submit a lesser-included offense instruction to jury would probably result in reversal upon timely direct appeal, the error is not of constitutional proportion entitling a defendant to pursue relief under this section. State v. Nicholson,
148 Wis. 2d 353,
435 N.W.2d 298 (Ct. App. 1988).
974.06 Annotation
A defendant challenging a sentence on due process grounds based upon a failure to receive a copy of the presentence investigation report is entitled to a hearing only upon showing that the court had a blanket policy of denial of access and the policy was specifically applied to the defendant, or that before sentencing the defendant personally sought access and was denied it. State v. Flores,
158 Wis. 2d 636,
462 N.W.2d 899 (Ct. App. 1990).
974.06 Annotation
A defendant's death did not moot a motion under s. 974.06 or the appeal of its denial. State v. Witkowski,
163 Wis. 2d 985,
473 N.W.2d 512 (Ct. App. 1991).
974.06 Annotation
A court should permit post sentencing withdrawal of a guilty or no contest plea only to correct a “manifest injustice." State v. Krieger,
163 Wis. 2d 241,
471 N.W.2d 599 (Ct. App. 1991).
974.06 Annotation
If a defendant is represented by the same attorney at trial and after conviction, the attorney's inability to assert his or her own ineffectiveness is a sufficient reason under sub. (4) for not asserting the matter in the original s. 974.06 motion. State v. Robinson,
177 Wis. 2d 46,
501 N.W.2d 831 (Ct. App. 1993).
974.06 Annotation
When a defendant must be present for a postconviction evidentiary hearing, the use of a telephone hearing is not authorized. State v. Vennemann,
180 Wis. 2d 81,
508 N.W.2d 404 (1993).
974.06 Annotation
A defendant is prohibited from raising a constitutional issue on a motion under s. 974.06 if the claim could have been raised in a previously filed s. 974.02 motion or a direct appeal. State v. Escalona-Naranjo,
185 Wis. 2d 168,
517 N.W.2d 157 (1994).
974.06 Annotation
Generally new rules of law will not be applied retroactively to cases on collateral review under this section. State v. Horton,
195 Wis. 2d 280,
536 N.W.2d 155 (Ct. App. 1995),
93-3380.
974.06 Annotation
A motion may not be filed under this section while an appeal of the same case is pending. When an appeal has not been resolved, the time for appeal under sub. (1) has not expired. State v. Redmond,
203 Wis. 2d 13,
552 N.W.2d 115 (Ct. App. 1996),
94-1544.
974.06 Annotation
The
Escanalona-Naranjo rule that a prisoner is compelled to raise in an original motion all grounds for postconviction relief that could have all been brought at the same time is extended to appeals by certiorari from parole and probation revocation hearings. State ex rel. Macemon v. Christie,
216 Wis. 2d 337,
576 N.W.2d 84 (Ct. App. 1998),
97-0660.
974.06 Annotation
Subject to any other bars, all defendants on probation have standing to pursue postconviction relief under this section. State v. Mentzel,
218 Wis. 2d 734,
581 N.W.2d 581 (Ct. App. 1998),
97-1814.
974.06 Annotation
Section 973.13 commands that all sentences in excess of that authorized by law be declared void, including the repeater portion of a sentence. Prior postconviction motions that failed to challenge the validity of the sentence do not bar seeking relief from faulty repeater sentences. State v. Flowers,
221 Wis. 2d 20,
586 N.W.2d 175 (Ct. App. 1998),
97-3682.
974.06 Annotation
A motion to modify a sentence under this section, due to an improperly entered restitution order, does not allow granting a money judgment against the state for the recovery of improperly collected restitution under the improper sentence. State v. Minniecheske,
223 Wis. 2d 493,
590 N.W.2d 17 (Ct. App. 1998),
98-1369.
974.06 Annotation
Whether a claim that newly discovered evidence entitles a probation revokee to an evidentiary hearing to determine whether a new probation revocation hearing should be conducted shall be governed by procedures analogous to those in criminal cases. Booker v. Schwarz,
2004 WI App 50,
270 Wis. 2d 745,
678 N.W.2d 361,
03-0217.
974.06 Annotation
Trial courts may correct obvious errors in sentences when it is clear that a good faith mistake was made in an initial sentencing pronouncement, the court promptly recognizes the error, and the court, by reducing an erroneous original sentence on one count and increasing the original sentence on another, seeks to impose a lawfully structured sentence that achieves the overall disposition the court originally intended. State v. Gruetzmacher,
2004 WI 55,
271 Wis. 2d 585,
679 N.W.2d 533,
02-3014.
974.06 Annotation
A hearing on a postconviction motion is required only when the movant states sufficient material facts that, if true, would entitle the defendant to relief. The mere assertion of a claim of manifest injustice, in this case the ineffective assistance of counsel, does not entitle a defendant to the granting of relief. State v. Allen,
2004 WI 106,
274 Wis. 2d 568,
682 N.W.2d 433,
02-2555.
974.06 Annotation
When a defendant's postconviction issues have been addressed by the no merit procedure under s. 809.32, the defendant may not thereafter again raise those issues or other issues that could have been raised in a previous postconviction motion under s. 974.06, absent the defendant demonstrating a sufficient reason for failing to raise those issues previously. State v. Tillman,
2005 WI App 71,
281 Wis. 2d 157,
696 N.W.2d 574,
04-0966.
974.06 Annotation
This section and
Escalona-Naranjo preclude a defendant from pursuing claims in a subsequent appeal that could have been raised in his or her direct appeal, unless the defendant provides sufficient reason for failure to raise the claims in the first instance. That the appeal was dismissed pursuant to s. 809.83 (2) does not change the result. State v. Thames,
2005 WI App 101,
281 Wis. 2d 772,
700 N.W.2d 285,
04-1257.
974.06 Annotation
A defendant is not required to file a response to the no-merit report under s. 809.32, but the fact that a defendant does not file a response to a no-merit report is not, by itself, a sufficient reason to permit the defendant to raise new claims under s. 974.06. Defendants must show a sufficient reason for failing to raise an issue in a response to a no-merit report because the court will have performed an examination of the record and determined any issues noted or any issues that are apparent to be without arguable merit. State v. Allen,
2010 WI 89,
328 Wis. 2d 1,
786 N.W.2d 124,
07-0795.
974.06 Annotation
A defendant gets review of issues not raised only if the court of appeals follows the no-merit protocol. If the no-merit procedure was followed, then it is irrelevant whether the defendant raised his or her claims. He or she got review of those claims from the court of appeals, and he is barred from raising them again. If it was not followed, it is similarly irrelevant whether the claims were raised. The failure to raise them may or may not have contributed to the court of appeals' failure to identify issues of arguable merit, but the court of appeals and appellate counsel should have found them and the defendant may not be barred from bringing an motion under s. 974.06 if the no-merit procedure was not followed. State v. Allen,
2010 WI 89,
328 Wis. 2d 1,
786 N.W.2d 124,
07-0795.
974.06 Annotation
If the court of appeals fails to discuss an issue of actual or arguable merit, the defendant has the opportunity to file: 1) a motion for reconsideration of the decision under s. 809.32 (1); 2) a petition for review with the supreme court; or 3) an immediate s. 974.06 motion, identifying any issue of arguable merit that was overlooked and, in the latter instance, explaining why nothing was said in a response to the no-merit report. Delay in these circumstances can seldom be justified. Failure of a defendant to respond to both a no-merit report and the decision on the no-merit report firms up the case for forfeiture of any issue that could have been raised. State v. Allen,
2010 WI 89,
328 Wis. 2d 1,
786 N.W.2d 124,
07-0795.
974.06 Annotation
While a postconviction motion under this section is not subject to the time limits set forth in s. 809.30 or 973.19, a s. 974.06 motion is limited to constitutional and jurisdictional challenges. It cannot be used to challenge a sentence based on an erroneous exercise of discretion when a sentence is within the statutory maximum or otherwise within the statutory power of the court. State v. Nickel,
2010 WI App 161,
330 Wis. 2d 750,
794 N.W.2d 765,

Sentence modification and postconviction relief under this section are separate proceedings such that filing one does not result in a waiver of the other. State v. Melton,

834 N.W.2d 345,
11-1770.
974.06 Annotation
A claim for ineffective assistance of postconviction counsel must be filed with the circuit court, either as a motion under this section or as a petition for a writ of habeas corpus. A defendant arguing ineffective assistance of appellate counsel, conversely, may not seek relief under this section and must instead petition the court of appeals for a writ of habeas corpus. State v. Starks,
2013 WI 69,
349 Wis. 2d 274,
833 N.W.2d 146,
10-0425.
974.06 Annotation
A defendant who alleges in a motion under this section that his or her postconviction counsel was ineffective for failing to bring certain viable claims must demonstrate that the claims he or she wishes to bring are clearly stronger than the claims postconviction counsel actually brought. However, in evaluating the comparative strength of the claims, reviewing courts should consider any objectives or preferences that the defendant conveyed to his attorney. A claim's strength may be bolstered if a defendant directed his attorney to pursue it. State v. Romero-Georgana,
2014 WI 83,
360 Wis. 2d 522,
849 N.W.2d 668,
12-0055.
974.06 Annotation
Newly discovered evidence that is cumulative does not support a motion for a new trial. When the credibility of a prosecution witness is tested at trial, evidence that again attacks the credibility of that witness is cumulative. In this case, the defendant had newly discovered evidence represented by the affidavits of three men who alleged that two witnesses lied when they testified during trial that the defendant was involved in the crimes for which he was convicted. The affidavits were merely cumulative evidence because they were additional evidence of the same general character as was subject to proof at trial, in other words, that the witnesses lied to achieve favorable plea bargains for themselves. State v. McAlister,
2018 WI 34,
380 Wis. 2d 684,
911 N.W.2d 77,
14-2561.
974.06 Annotation
In this case, the affidavits attested to years after the trial that were offered as newly discovered evidence averred that two trial witnesses admitted to the affiants prior to trial that the witnesses intended to falsely accuse the defendant of involvement in crimes in order to reduce their own punishment. That evidence differed from classic recantation testimony in the temporal sense and also because there was no formal or public renunciation of the witnesses' testimony. However, the affidavits bore a similarity to recantation evidence in that they used what was claimed to be the witnesses' own words to allege the witnesses lied at trial. Under
McCallum,
208 Wis. 2d 463, when recantation testimony is presented as newly discovered evidence, the recantation must be corroborated by other newly discovered evidence. No less was required for the affidavits presented in this case. State v. McAlister,

974.06 Annotation
When postconviction counsel failed to assert a claim of ineffective assistance of trial counsel in a postconviction motion under s. 974.02, the defendant's opportunity to argue that claim on direct appeal was foreclosed. The appropriate forum for asserting ineffective assistance of postconviction counsel for failure to raise ineffective assistance of trial counsel was in a collateral motion under s. 974.06. Page v.

974.07(2)(a)
(a) The evidence is relevant to the investigation or prosecution that resulted in the conviction, adjudication, or finding of not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect.
974.07(2)(b)
(b) The evidence is in the actual or constructive possession of a government agency.
974.07(2)(c)
(c) The evidence has not previously been subjected to forensic deoxyribonucleic acid testing or, if the evidence has previously been tested, it may now be subjected to another test using a scientific technique that was not available or was not utilized at the time of the previous testing and that provides a reasonable likelihood of more accurate and probative results.
974.07(3)
(3) A movant or, if applicable, his or her attorney shall serve a copy of the motion made under sub.
(2) on the district attorney's office that prosecuted the case that resulted in the conviction, adjudication, or finding of not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect. The court in which the motion is made shall also notify the appropriate district attorney's office that a motion has been made under sub.
(2) and shall give the district attorney an opportunity to respond to the motion. Failure by a movant to serve a copy of the motion on the appropriate district attorney's office does not deprive the court of jurisdiction and is not grounds for dismissal of the motion.
974.07(4)(a)(a) The clerk of the circuit court in which a motion under sub.
(2) is made shall send a copy of the motion and, if a hearing on the motion is scheduled, a notice of the hearing to the victim of the crime or delinquent act committed by the movant, if the clerk is able to determine an address for the victim. The clerk of the circuit court shall make a reasonable attempt to send the copy of the motion to the address of the victim within 7 days of the date on which the motion is filed and shall make a reasonable attempt to send a notice of hearing, if a hearing is scheduled, to the address of the victim, postmarked at least 10 days before the date of the hearing.
