¶ 1. This is a review of an unpublished decision of the court of appeals 1 that reversed a decision of the Circuit Court for La Crosse County, Dale T. Pasell, Judge.
¶ 2. The defendant, Dr. James R. Thiel (Thiel), was convicted of seven counts of sexual exploitation by a therapist in violation of Wis. Stat. § 940.22(2). 2 Following his conviction, Thiel claimed that his trial counsel was constitutionally inadequate.
