Rape-Shield, § 972.11 – Generally

State v. Edward A. Hammer, 2000 WI 92, 236 Wis. 2d 686, 613 N.W.2d 629, on certification, habeas denied, Hammer v. Karlen, 342 F.3d 807 (7th Cir. 2003)
For Hammer: Rex Anderegg

Issue/Holding: The rape shield statute will be overcome if the five-part test of State v. Pulizzano, 155 Wis. 2d 633, 656, 456 N.W.2d 325 (1990) is met. ¶44. In this case, the circuit court’s determination that only one of those factors was satisfied, and that the evidence was therefore inadmissible, is sustained as a proper exercise of discretion. ¶¶45-49.
