02/12/2003MotionFiled Response to Motion. Opposition to Appellant's Motion for Summary Remand. 03-02434
02/24/2003Order/ProceduralFiled Order Denying Motion. Appellant has moved this court to suspend briefing in this appeal and remand this matter to the district court under SCR 250(8)(b). The State opposes the motion. This provision does not create a method for pursuing claims of ineffective assistance of counsel allegedly occurring in the district court proceeding under appeal. A subsequent post-conviction petition for habeas relief is the appropriate vehicle for such claims. We therefore deny appellant's motion to suspend briefing and remand. Appellant shall have 30 days from the date of this order to file and serve an opening brief and appendix. No further extensions will be granted absent extreme and unforeseeable circumstances. 03-02974
