Motor Vehicles – OWI — reasonable suspicion

Michael P. Green appeals from judgments of conviction for resisting an officer, operating a motor vehicle after revocation (OAR), and operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of intoxicants (OWI), fourth offense. Green contends that the arresting officer did not have the requisite reasonable suspicion to stop his vehicle and, therefore, the trial court erred in denying his pretrial motion to suppress evidence. Green also contends that there was insufficient evidence to support the jury’s finding that he resisted arrest and that the trial court erred in denying his postconviction motion to dismiss that charge or grant a new trial. We reject Green’s challenges. We affirm the judgments and order. This opinion will not be published.
