Description
Johnny L. Hampton appeals from a judgment entered after a jury convicted him of two counts of armed robbery, party to a crime, contrary to Sections 943.32(1)(b) & (2) and 939.05, Stats. He also appeals from an order denying post-conviction motions. Hampton claims the trial court erred: (1) when it summarily denied his claim that he received ineffective assistance of trial counsel without holding a Machner hearing; and (2) when it ruled that Hamptons due process right to a fair trial was not violated when a juror fell asleep during the testimony of a police witness. Because Hampton was not entitled to a Machner hearing, and because the trial courts findings regarding the sleeping juror are not clearly erroneous, we affirm.
