Listen to this article

Michael J. Farrell appeals his conviction of operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated (OMVWI). He argues that the circuit court erred in refusing to suppress the results of his blood test. He concludes the circuit court was in error because a breath test was available, and therefore the blood test was an unreasonable search and seizure. We conclude that the issue presented is controlled by State v. Thorstad, 2000 WI App 199, 238 Wis.2d 666, 618 N.W.2d 240, and additionally, Farrell consented to his blood being drawn. Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the circuit court. This opinion will not be published.

Dist IV, Dane County, Foust, J., Roggensack, J.

Attorneys:
