Description
1 Earl Jones, Jr., appeals from an order summarily denying his post-conviction motions for a new trial and for the appointment of counsel. Jones raises the issues of whether the trial court erroneously exercised its discretion in failing to: (1) compel the State to analyze and compare a splinter of wood recovered from the victim with the wood from the bat used to beat the victim; (2) act in response to the prosecutors allegedly improper comments during closing argument; and (3) instruct the jury to sign only one verdict relating to felony murder and armed robbery. We conclude that Joness fourth post-conviction motion is procedurally barred for his failure to currently allege a sufficient reason for failing to previously raise or for renewing these issues as required by State v. Escalona-Naranjo, 185 Wis. 2d 168, 185-86, 517 N.W.2d 157 (1994) and State v. Tillman, 2005 WI App 71, 25-27, 281 Wis. 2d 157, 696 N.W.2d 574.Therefore, we affirm.
