WI Court of Appeals – District III

Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Xavier Grullon

Case No.: 2016AP2404-CR

Officials: SEIDL, J.

Focus: Motion to Suppress Evidence Denied

Xavier Grullon appeals a judgment convicting him of operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated (OWI) as a misdemeanor fourth offense. Grullon challenges the circuit court’s order denying his motion to suppress evidence obtained as a result of his arrest.

We affirm the judgment, concluding that, assuming a pre-arrest seizure occurred, the totality of the circumstances provided reasonable suspicion justifying Grullon’s seizure.
