STATE, Respondent, v. RUUD, Appellant.

Supreme Court of Wisconsin.

Decided March 4, 1969.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

For the appellant there was a brief by Jack McManus and Larry Haukom, both of Madison, and oral argument by Mr. McManus.

For the respondent the cause was argued by Betty R. Brown, assistant attorney general, with whom on the brief were Bronson C. La Follette, attorney general, William A. Platz, assistant attorney general, and Burleigh Randolph, district attorney of La Crosse county.


BEILFUSS, J.

Upon appeal the defendant makes three contentions:

(1) The incustodial statement of the defendant was not preceded by adequate warning of his constitutional right to have assistance of counsel.

(2) The prosecutor's remark in closing argument to the jury was prejudicial.

(3) Trial court's refusal to allow the defendant to be recalled to refute the testimony of his own witness was an abuse of discretion and prejudicial error.
