SB55-SSA1-CA1,988,22 21974.07 Motion for postconviction deoxyribonucleic acid testing of
22certain evidence.
(1) In this section:
SB55-SSA1-CA1,988,2423 (a) "Government agency" means any department, agency, or court of the federal
24government, of this state, or of a city, village, town, or county in this state.
SB55-SSA1-CA1,989,1

SB55-SSA1-CA1,989,6 2(2) At any time after being convicted of a crime, adjudicated delinquent, or
3found not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect, a person may make a motion
4in the court in which he or she was convicted, adjudicated delinquent, or found not
5guilty by reason of mental disease or defect for an order requiring forensic
6deoxyribonucleic acid testing of evidence to which all of the following apply:
SB55-SSA1-CA1,989,97 (a) The evidence is relevant to the investigation or prosecution that resulted
8in the conviction, adjudication, or finding of not guilty by reason of mental disease
9or defect.
SB55-SSA1-CA1,989,1110 (b) The evidence is in the actual or constructive possession of a government
11agency.
SB55-SSA1-CA1,989,1612 (c) The evidence has not previously been subjected to forensic deoxyribonucleic
13acid testing or, if the evidence has previously been tested, it may now be subjected
14to another test using a scientific technique that was not available or was not utilized
15at the time of the previous testing and that provides a reasonable likelihood of more
16accurate and probative results.
SB55-SSA1-CA1,989,25 17(3) A movant or, if applicable, his or her attorney shall serve a copy of the
18motion made under sub. (2) on the district attorney's office that prosecuted the case

20mental disease or defect. The court in which the motion is made shall also notify the
21appropriate district attorney's office that a motion has been made under sub. (2) and
22shall give the district attorney an opportunity to respond to the motion. Failure by
23a movant to serve a copy of the motion on the appropriate district attorney's office
24does not deprive the court of jurisdiction and is not grounds for dismissal of the
25motion.
SB55-SSA1-CA1,990,8
1(4) (a) The clerk of the circuit court in which a motion under sub. (2) is made
2shall send a copy of the motion and, if a hearing on the motion is scheduled, a notice
3of the hearing to the victim of the crime or delinquent act committed by the movant,
4if the clerk is able to determine an address for the victim. The clerk of the circuit court
5shall make a reasonable attempt to send the copy of the motion to the address of the
6victim within 7 days of the date on which the motion is filed and shall make a
7reasonable attempt to send a notice of hearing, if a hearing is scheduled, to the
8address of the victim, postmarked at least 10 days before the date of the hearing.
SB55-SSA1-CA1,990,159 (b) Notwithstanding the limitation on the disclosure of mailing addresses from

14of court in obtaining information regarding the mailing address of victims for the
15purpose of sending copies of motions and notices of hearings under par. (a).
SB55-SSA1-CA1,990,21 16(5) Upon receiving under sub. (3) a copy of a motion made under sub. (2) or
17notice from a court that a motion has been made, whichever occurs first, the district
18attorney shall take all actions necessary to ensure that all biological material that
19was collected in connection with the investigation or prosecution of the case and that
20remains in the actual or constructive custody of a government agency is preserved
21pending completion of the proceedings under this section.
SB55-SSA1-CA1,990,24 22(6) (a) Upon demand the district attorney shall disclose to the movant or his
23or her attorney whether biological material has been tested and shall make available
24to the movant or his or her attorney the following material:
SB55-SSA1-CA1,990,2525 1. Findings based on testing of biological materials.
SB55-SSA1-CA1,991,3
12. Physical evidence that is in the actual or constructive possession of a
2government agency and that contains biological material or on which there is
3biological material.
SB55-SSA1-CA1,991,64 (b) Upon demand the movant or his or her attorney shall disclose to the district
5attorney whether biological material has been tested and shall make available to the
6district attorney the following material:
SB55-SSA1-CA1,991,77 1. Findings based on testing of biological materials.
SB55-SSA1-CA1,991,88 2. The movant's biological specimen.
SB55-SSA1-CA1,991,119 (c) Upon motion of the district attorney or the movant, the court may impose

112. in order to protect the integrity of the evidence.
SB55-SSA1-CA1,991,1412 (d) This subsection does not apply unless the information being disclosed or the

14made under sub. (2).
SB55-SSA1-CA1,991,16 15(7) (a) A court in which a motion under sub. (2) is filed shall order forensic
16deoxyribonucleic acid testing if all of the following apply:
SB55-SSA1-CA1,991,1817 1. The movant claims that he or she is innocent of the offense at issue in the
18motion under sub. (2).
SB55-SSA1-CA1,991,2319 2. It is reasonably probable that the movant would not have been prosecuted,
20convicted, found not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect, or adjudicated
21delinquent for the offense at issue in the motion under sub. (2), if exculpatory
22deoxyribonucleic acid testing results had been available before the prosecution,
23conviction, finding of not guilty, or adjudication for the offense.
SB55-SSA1-CA1,991,2424 3. The evidence to be tested meets the conditions under sub. (2) (a) to (c).
SB55-SSA1-CA1,992,4
14. The chain of custody of the evidence to be tested establishes that the evidence
2has not been tampered with, replaced, or altered in any material respect or, if the
3chain of custody does not establish the integrity of the evidence, the testing itself can
4establish the integrity of the evidence.
SB55-SSA1-CA1,992,65 (b) A court in which a motion under sub. (2) is filed may order forensic
6deoxyribonucleic acid testing if all of the following apply:
SB55-SSA1-CA1,992,147 1. It is reasonably probable that the outcome of the proceedings that resulted
8in the conviction, the finding of not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect, or
9the delinquency adjudication for the offense at issue in the motion under sub. (2), or
10the terms of the sentence, the commitment under s. 971.17, or the disposition under
11ch. 938, would have been more favorable to the movant if the results of
12deoxyribonucleic acid testing had been available before he or she was prosecuted,
13convicted, found not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect, or adjudicated
14delinquent for the offense.
SB55-SSA1-CA1,992,1515 2. The evidence to be tested meets the conditions under sub. (2) (a) to (c).
SB55-SSA1-CA1,992,1916 3. The chain of custody of the evidence to be tested establishes that the evidence
17has not been tampered with, replaced, or altered in any material respect or, if the
18chain of custody does not establish the integrity of the evidence, the testing itself can
19establish the integrity of the evidence.
SB55-SSA1-CA1,992,24 20(8) The court may impose reasonable conditions on any testing ordered under
21this section in order to protect the integrity of the evidence and the testing process.
22If appropriate and if stipulated to by the movant and the district attorney, the court
23may order the state crime laboratories to perform the testing as provided under s.
24165.77 (2m).
SB55-SSA1-CA1,993,5
1(9) If a court in which a motion under sub. (2) is filed does not order forensic
2deoxyribonucleic acid testing, or if the results of forensic deoxyribonucleic acid
3testing ordered under this section are not supportive of the movant's claim, the court
4shall determine the disposition of the evidence specified in the motion subject to the
5following:
SB55-SSA1-CA1,993,166 (a) If a person other than the movant is in custody, as defined in s. 968.205 (1)
7(a), the evidence is relevant to the criminal, delinquency, or commitment proceeding
8that resulted in the person being in custody, the person has not been denied
9deoxyribonucleic acid testing or postconviction relief under this section, and the
10person has not waived his or her right to preserve the evidence under s. 165.81 (3),
11757.54 (2), 968.205, or 978.08, the court shall order the evidence preserved until all
12persons entitled to have the evidence preserved are released from custody, and the
13court shall designate who shall preserve the evidence. The court may not issue an
14order under this paragraph requiring that an agency transfer evidence to a crime
15laboratory specified under s. 165.75 for the purpose of preservation of the evidence
16by the crime laboratory, unless the crime laboratory consents to the transfer.
SB55-SSA1-CA1,993,2317 (b) If the conditions in par. (a) are not present, the court shall determine the
18disposition of the evidence, and, if the evidence is to be preserved, by whom and for
19how long. The court shall issue appropriate orders concerning the disposition of the
20evidence based on its determinations. The court may not issue an order under this
21paragraph requiring that an agency transfer evidence to a crime laboratory specified
22under s. 165.75 for the purpose of preservation of the evidence by the crime
23laboratory, unless the crime laboratory consents to the transfer.
SB55-SSA1-CA1,994,4 24(10) (a) If the results of forensic deoxyribonucleic acid testing ordered under
25this section support the movant's claim, the court shall schedule a hearing to

1determine the appropriate relief to be granted to the movant. After the hearing, and
2based on the results of the testing and any evidence or other matter presented at the
3hearing, the court shall enter any order that serves the interests of justice, including
4any of the following:
SB55-SSA1-CA1,994,75 1. An order setting aside or vacating the movant's judgment of conviction,
6judgment of not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect, or adjudication of

14completion of the testing, subject to sub. (9) (a) and (b).
SB55-SSA1-CA1,994,1615 (b) A court may order a new trial under par. (a) without making the findings
16specified in s. 805.15 (3) (a) and (b).
