Wisconsin Court of Appeals
Criminal
Motor Vehicles – OWI — speedy trial
Brian Beahm appeals the circuit court’s judgment convicting him of operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated as a second offense. Beahm asserts that the State violated his right to a speedy trial. Although the State concedes that the approximately twelve- to thirteen-month delay in this case was the State’s fault, I affirm because Beahm’s arguments do not persuade me that any of the other right-to-speedy-trial factors weigh significantly in his favor. This opinion will not be published.
Dist IV, Marquette County, Wright, J., Lundsten, J.
Attorneys: For Appellant: Johnson, Erik C., Montello; For Respondent: Weber, Gregory M., Madison; Hendee, Chad A., Montello
