OWI; refusal; forcible blood sample; due process
Andrew M. LaFond appeals an order revoking his operating privileges because of his failure to submit to a chemical blood test in violation of Wis. Stat. § 343.305(10). LaFond argues the County violated his due process and equal protection rights by failing to give him reasonable notice that a law enforcement officer can forcibly take a blood sample after an arrestee refuses to give it willingly. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
