Motor Vehicles – OWI — statute of limitations

Benjamin Strohman appeals a judgment of conviction for operating while intoxicated (OWI), second offense, and an order denying his postconviction motion. Strohman argues his conviction was improper as a matter of law because the applicable statute of limitations barred the State’s prosecution in 2013 for his 2005 offense. We agree and reverse. This opinion will not be published.

Dist III, Brown County, Atkinson, J., Hruz, J.

Attorneys: For Appellant: Miller, Steven L., River Falls; For Respondent: Weber, Gregory M., Madison; Enli, Eric R., Green Bay; Lasee, David L., Green Bay
