Motor Vehicles – OWI — probable cause

Amanda L. Kratochwill appeals from a judgment of conviction for operating a vehicle while under the influence of an intoxicant, as a third offense, in violation of Wis. Stat. § 346.63(1)(a). Kratochwill contends that her arrest was not lawful because the arresting officer lacked probable cause to arrest Kratochwill for operating while intoxicated. This court concludes that the arresting officer had probable cause to arrest Kratochwill and therefore affirms. This opinion will not be published.
