507 N.W.2d 172

STATE of Wisconsin, Plaintiff-Respondent, v. Jason C. CLARK, Defendant-Appellant.

Court of Appeals of Wisconsin.

Decided September 30, 1993.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

For the defendant-appellant the cause was submitted on the briefs of Margarita Van Nuland and John M. Brinckman of Brinckman & Brinckman, S.C. of La Crosse.

For the plaintiff-respondent the cause was submitted on the brief of James E. Doyle, attorney general, and Thomas J. Balistreri, assistant attorney general.

Before Eich, C.J., Dykman and Sundby, JJ.

DYKMAN, J.

Jason Clark appeals from a judgment of conviction for physical abuse of a child, Angela H., contrary to sec. 948.03(2)(b), Stats. The issue is whether the trial court erred in admitting evidence that Clark had battered a previous girlfriend as proof of his intent to injure Angela. We conclude that the trial court properly exercised its discretion in allowing evidence of the prior bad act. Therefore, we affirm.
