Description
1 This is a review of an unpublished decision of the court of appeals that reversed an order of the Circuit Court for Wood County, James M. Mason, Judge. The circuit court denied Rachel Keltys post-conviction, post-sentencing motion to withdraw her plea to two counts of first-degree reckless injury in violation of Wis. Stat. ร§ 940.23(1)(a) (1999-00). In her motion, Kelty challenged the validity of her conviction to the second reckless injury count, claiming that it was multiplicitous. The circuit court concluded that Kelty had waived any double jeopardy defect by pleading guilty to both counts. A divided court of appeals reversed, holding that only an express waiver of double jeopardy can relinquish a defendants double jeopardy rights.
