01-3500 City of Sheboygan v. Taylor

By: dmc-admin//June 17, 2002//

Listen to this article

Bradley R. Taylor appeals his conviction of driving while intoxicated and the trial court order denying his motion to reopen. He acknowledges that no Wisconsin statute or appellate decision allows an insanity defense for traffic forfeiture actions but requests that this court make such law. We will not because it is beyond our powers as an error-correcting court to do so. He also argues that there was insufficient evidence to prove that he was driving while intoxicated.

We disagree and affirm the conviction and order denying Taylor’s postconviction motion to reopen.

This opinion will not be published.

Dist II, Sheboygan County, Bolgert, J., Brown, J.

Attorneys:

For Appellant: Ralph Sczygelski, Manitowoc

For Respondent: Charles C. Adams, Sheboygan
