WI Court of Appeals – District II

Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Brandon M. Swiecichowski

Case No.: 2016AP1808-CR

Officials: Neubauer, C.J.

Focus: Motion to Suppress

Brandon M. Swiecichowski appeals from a judgment convicting him of operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated (OWI), second offense, contrary to WIS. STAT. § 346.63(1)(a). Swiecichowski contends that the circuit court erroneously denied his motion to suppress evidence because the officer who stopped him lacked reasonable suspicion that he committed a traffic infraction. We agree and thus reverse the judgment and remand for further proceedings.
