Description
1 James Hubert Tucker, Jr. (Tucker) seeks review of an order of the court of appeals, affirming the circuit courts denial of his motion for sentence modification under Wis. Stat. ร§ 809.30(2)(h)(2001-02). We review this case to determine whether the reductions in maximum penalties for the crimes of possession with intent to deliver cocaine and felony bail-jumping, set forth in the truth-in-sentencing provisions of 2001 Wis. Act 109 (TIS-II), constitute new factors in regard to a sentence modification motion, where the original sentences were imposed in accord with 1997 Wis. Act 283 (TIS-I). Additionally, we must determine whether a TIS-I offender can petition the circuit court for a sentence adjustment under Wis. Stat. ร§ 973.195, and whether a different approach is required for unclassified rather than classified felonies.
