Motor Vehicles
OWI; burden of proof; sufficiency of the evidence
David Steinke appeals a judgment of conviction for operating a vehicle with a prohibited alcohol concentration (PAC) of 0.08 or more, second offense, contrary to Wis. Stat. § 346.63(1)(b). He argues that the circuit court, after a trial to the court, convicted him of driving with a prohibited alcohol concentration by the greater weight of the credible evidence and not beyond a reasonable doubt. He also contends that the evidence was insufficient to support his conviction beyond a reasonable doubt. We conclude the circuit court applied the proper burden of proof and that the evidence was sufficient to prove that Steinke was guilty of driving with a PAC beyond a reasonable doubt. We affirm the judgment of conviction. This opinion will not be published.
