974.05(1)(d)1. 1. Quashing an arrest warrant;
974.05(1)(d)2. 2. Suppressing evidence; or
974.05(1)(d)3. 3. Suppressing a confession or admission.

974.05(3) (3) Permission of the trial court is not required for the state to appeal, but the district attorney shall serve notice of such appeal or of the procurement of a writ of error upon the defendant or the defendant's attorney.
974.05 History History: 1971 c. 298; Sup. Ct. Order, 67 W (2d) 585, 784 (1975); 1977 c. 187; 1983 a. 219; 1991 a. 39; 1993 a. 486.
974.05 Annotation Where the state appeals from an order suppressing evidence the defendant can ask for a review of another part of the order, although he could not appeal directly. State v. Beals, 52 W (2d) 599, 191 NW (2d) 221.
974.05 Annotation The fact that the state can appeal from an order suppressing evidence, but the defendant cannot, does not show a denial of equal protection of the law. State v. Withers, 61 W (2d) 37, 211 NW (2d) 456.
974.05 Annotation The granting of a motion to withdraw a guilty plea is a final order appealable by the state. State v. Bagnall, 61 W (2d) 297, 212 NW (2d) 122.
974.05 Annotation The trial court's setting aside of a jury finding of defendant's guilt in exhibiting an obscene film preview contrary to 944.21, and its dismissal of the information, was not appealable by the state because it was a final judgment adverse to the state made after jeopardy had attached, and jeopardy was not waived; hence the judgment was not within those situations from which a state appeal is authorized by this section. State v. Detco, Inc. 66 W (2d) 95, 223 NW (2d) 859.
974.05 Annotation Trial court's order specifying conditions of incarceration was neither judgment nor sentence under (1) (c). State v. Gibbons, 71 W (2d) 94, 237 NW (2d) 33.
974.05 Annotation Under 808.03 (2), both prosecution and defense may seek permissive appeal of nonfinal orders. State v. Rabe, 96 W (2d) 48, 291 NW (2d) 809 (1980).
974.05 Annotation Sub. (1) (d) 2 authorized state to appeal order suppressing defendant's oral statements. State v. Mendoza, 96 W (2d) 106, 291 NW (2d) 478 (1980).

974.06 974.06 Postconviction procedure.
974.06(1) (1) After the time for appeal or postconviction remedy provided in s. 974.02 has expired, a prisoner in custody under sentence of a court or a person convicted and placed with a volunteers in probation program under s. 973.11 claiming the right to be released upon the ground that the sentence was imposed in violation of the U.S. constitution or the constitution or laws of this state, that the court was without jurisdiction to impose such sentence, or that the sentence was in excess of the maximum authorized by law or is otherwise subject to collateral attack, may move the court which imposed the sentence to vacate, set aside or correct the sentence.
974.06(2) (2) A motion for such relief is a part of the original criminal action, is not a separate proceeding and may be made at any time. The supreme court may prescribe the form of the motion.
974.06(3) (3) Unless the motion and the files and records of the action conclusively show that the person is entitled to no relief, the court shall:
974.06(3)(a) (a) Cause a copy of the notice to be served upon the district attorney who shall file a written response within the time prescribed by the court.
974.06(3)(b) (b) If it appears that counsel is necessary and if the defendant claims or appears to be indigent, refer the person to the state public defender for an indigency determination and appointment of counsel under ch. 977.
974.06(3)(c) (c) Grant a prompt hearing.
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. 807.13.
974.06(6) (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 History History: 1971 c. 40 s. 93; 1977 c. 29, 187, 418; 1981 c. 289; Sup. Ct. Order, 141 W (2d) xiii (1987); 1991 a. 253.
974.06 Note Judicial Council Note, 1981: Sub. (8) has been amended to reflect the fact that habeas corpus relief is now available in an ordinary action in circuit court. See s. 781.01, stats., and the note thereto and s. 809.51, stats. [Bill 613-A]
974.06 Note Judicial Council Note, 1988: Sub. (5) is amended to allow post-conviction motions under this section to be heard by telephone conference. [Re Order effective Jan. 1, 1988]
974.06 Annotation Plea bargaining as a basis for withdrawal of guilty plea and a new trial discussed. State v. Wolfe, 46 W (2d) 478, 175 NW (2d) 216.
974.06 Annotation Where defendant made a pro se motion within the time limited but counsel was not appointed until later, the court should hear the motion. He can withdraw a guilty plea as a matter of right if he establishes: (1) That there occurred a violation of a relevant constitutional right; (2) that this violation caused him to plead guilty; and (3) that at the time of his guilty plea he was unaware of potential constitutional challenges to the prosecution's case against him because of that violation. State v. Carlson, 48 W (2d) 222, 179 NW (2d) 851.
974.06 Annotation Defendant's contention that he concluded he was going to be sentenced under the Youth Service Act and would be incarcerated for no more than 2 years, whereas a 20-year sentence was imposed (assuming verity), constituted no grounds for withdrawal of the guilty plea, his trial defense counsel asserting 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 W (2d) 551, 182 NW (2d) 267.
974.06 Annotation The sentencing judge is not disqualified from conducting a hearing on a postconviction motion to withdraw a guilty plea unless he has interjected himself in the plea bargaining to the extent he may become a material witness or otherwise disqualify himself. Rahhal v. State, 52 W (2d) 144, 187 NW (2d) 800.
974.06 Annotation After a plea bargain for a recommendation of a one-year sentence by the prosecutor, where a presentence report recommended 2 years and defendant did not object, he cannot then withdraw his guilty plea. Farrar v. State, 52 W (2d) 651, 191 NW (2d) 214.
974.06 Annotation Postconviction procedure cannot be used as a substitute for appeal; trial errors such as sufficiency of the evidence, instructions and errors in admission of evidence cannot be raised. State v. Langston, 53 W (2d) 228, 191 NW (2d) 713.
974.06 Annotation Procedure to be followed as to postconviction motions discussed. Peterson v. State, 54 W (2d) 370, 195 NW (2d) 837.
974.06 Annotation No hearing need be granted where the record refutes defendant's claims and they can be found to have no merit. Nelson v. State, 54 W (2d) 489, 195 NW (2d) 629.
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 W (2d) 613, 197 NW (2d) 1.
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 W (2d) 390, 202 NW (2d) 10.
974.06 Annotation When a defendant is informed that he might receive a maximum sentence of 20 years on an attempted murder charge and is then sentenced to 25 years, the sentence will be reduced to 20 years. Preston v. State, 58 W (2d) 728, 206 NW (2d) 619.
974.06 Annotation The question of sufficiency of the evidence cannot be reached by a motion under this section; the utter failure to produce any evidence could be, because conviction without evidence of guilt would be a denial of due process. Weber v. State, 59 W (2d) 371, 208 NW (2d) 396.
974.06 Annotation A motion for postconviction relief may be denied without a hearing if defendant fails to allege sufficient facts to raise a question of fact or presents only conclusory allegations, or the record conclusively demonstrates that he is not entitled to relief. Where 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 W (2d) 373, 210 NW (2d) 678.
974.06 Annotation Objection to the 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, in view of 971.31 (2). State v. Kuecey, 60 W (2d) 677, 211 NW (2d) 453.
974.06 Annotation When a defendant, ordered to be present at a hearing under this section, escapes prison, the court may summarily dismiss the petition. State v. John, 60 W (2d) 730, 211 NW (2d) 463.
974.06 Annotation An appeal from an order under this section in a misdemeanor case must be to the circuit court. State v. Brice, 61 W (2d) 397, 212 NW (2d) 596.
974.06 Annotation The supreme court as a caveat points out that it does not encourage the assignment of members of the prosecutor's staff to review petitions for postconviction relief. Holmes v. State, 63 W (2d) 389, 217 NW (2d) 657.
974.06 Annotation The 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 W (2d) 412, 217 NW (2d) 317.
974.06 Annotation The failure to establish a factual basis for a guilty plea is of constitutional dimensions and is the type of error which can be reached by a 974.06 motion. Loop v. State, 65 W (2d) 499, 222 NW (2d) 694.
974.06 Annotation The necessity or desirability of the presence of 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; hence, there was no abuse of discretion in denial of defendant's motion to be present at the hearing on his 974.06 motions where only issues of law were raised and defense counsel had other opportunities to consult with his client. Sanders v. State, 69 W (2d) 242, 230 NW (2d) 845.
974.06 Annotation Although the allegation that defendant was sick from extensive use of amphetamines at the time of his confession finds no support in the record of the original proceedings, a silent record does not conclusively show a defendant is entitled to no relief, and where 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 W (2d) 355, 230 NW (2d) 673.
974.06 Annotation In an appeal via writ of error to review a sentence for forgery consisting of an 8-year prison term with the additional requirement that restitution be made, the supreme court, while reaching the merits, determines that henceforth the 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 W (2d) 362, 234 NW (2d) 79.
974.06 Annotation State courts do not have subject-matter jurisdiction over postconviction motion of federal prisoner not in custody under the sentence of a state court. State v. Theoharopoulos, 72 W (2d) 327, 240 NW (2d) 635.
974.06 Annotation See note to art. I, sec. 8, citing State v. North, 91 W (2d) 507, 283 NW (2d) 457 (Ct. App. 1979).
974.06 Annotation See note to art I, sec. 8, citing State v. Stawicki, 93 W (2d) 63, 286 NW (2d) 612 (Ct. App. 1979).

974.06 Annotation This section does not supplant the writ of error coram nobis. Jessen v. State, 95 W (2d) 207, 290 NW (2d) 685 (1980).
974.06 Annotation Court had no jurisdiction under s. 974.06, 1979 stats., to hear challenge of computation of prisoner's good time; habeas corpus was proper avenue of relief. State v. Johnson, 101 W (2d) 698, 305 NW (2d) 188 (Ct. App. 1981).
974.06 Annotation Power of circuit court to stay execution of sentence for legal cause does not include power to stay sentence while collateral attack is being made on conviction by habeas corpus proceeding in federal court. State v. Shumate, 107 W (2d) 460, 319 NW (2d) 834 (1982).
974.06 Annotation Burden of proof under (6) is clear and convincing evidence. State v. Walberg, 109 W (2d) 96, 325 NW (2d) 687 (1982).
974.06 Annotation See note to Art. I, sec. 8, citing State v. Billings, 110 W (2d) 661, 329 NW (2d) 192 (1983).
974.06 Annotation See note to Art. I, sec. 7, citing State v. Lukasik, 115 W (2d) 134, 340 NW (2d) 62 (Ct. App. 1983).
974.06 Annotation Formal violation of 971.08 may not be remedied under this section. Motions under this section are limited to jurisdictional and constitutional matters. State v. Carter, 131 W (2d) 69, 389 NW (2d) 1 (1986).
974.06 Annotation While trial court's failure to submit lesser-included offense instruction to jury would probably result in reversal upon timely direct appeal, error is not of constitutional proportion entitling defendant to pursue relief under this section. State v. Nicholson, 148 W (2d) 353, 435 NW (2d) 298 (Ct. App. 1988).
974.06 Annotation Defendant challenging sentence on due process grounds based upon failure to receive copy of presentence investigation report is entitled to hearing only upon showing that the court had blanket policy of denial of access and policy was specifically applied to defendant, or that before sentencing plea defendant personally sought access and was denied it. State v. Flores, 158 W (2d) 636, 462 NW (2d) 899 (Ct. App. 1990).
974.06 Annotation Defendant's death did not moot 974.06 motion or appeal of its denial. State v. Witkowski, 163 W (2d) 985, 473 NW (2d) 512 (Ct. App. 1991).
974.06 Annotation Court should permit post sentencing withdrawal of guilty or no contest only to correct "manifest injustice". State v. Krieger, 163 W (2d) 241, 471 NW (2d) 599 (Ct. App. 1991).
974.06 Annotation Where 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 W (2d) 46, 501 NW (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 W (2d) 81, 508 NW (2d) 404 (1993).
974.06 Annotation A defendant is prohibited from raising a constitutional issue on s. 974.06 motion if the claim could have been raised in a previously filed s. 974.02 motion or a direct appeal. State v. Escalera-Naranjo, 185 W (2d) 169, 517 NW (2d) 157 (1994).

974.06 Annotation Because individual has no underlying constitutional right to appointed counsel in state collateral postconviction proceedings, individual may not insist upon implementation of Anders v. California, 386 US 738 (1967) procedures. Pennsylvania v. Finley, 481 US 551 (1987).
