Motion Seeks Retrial For Tomah Man Under Repeater Charge
Public Defender Robert Frieberg asked Monroe County Judge James W. Rice to vacate the two year reformatory sentence for Robert F. Plutchack of Tomah and grant a new trial claiming his constitutional rights were violated by lack of counsel notice. The case centers on convictions used to support a felony repeater charge and whether a 1965 drunken and disorderly conviction was valid. Judge Rice requested briefs and gave the state 20 days to respond before ruling.
