David Melstrand appeals judgments for possession of marijuana, speeding and driving without a license. He argues that he consented only to a frisk for weapons and that officer Scott Poupart exceeded the scope of the consent when he reached inside Melstrand’s coat and removed what turned out to be a marijuana cigarette. Because Melstrand consented to the frisk and the officer did not exceed the scope of the frisk, this court affirms the judgments. This opinion will not be published.

Dist III, Vilas County, Mohr, J., Hoover, P.J.

Attorneys:

For Appellant: David R. Melstrand, Mequon

For Respondent: Dewitt J. Strong, Eagle River
