Wisconsin Court of Appeals
Criminal
Motor Vehicles – OWI — probable cause
Jonathan Berger appeals from judgments of conviction, arguing that the circuit court erred when it denied his motion to suppress evidence on charges against him for operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated (OWI) and with a prohibited blood alcohol concentration. He contends the police officer who arrested him did not have probable cause to do so and thus violated his right to be free from unreasonable seizures under the Fourth Amendment of the United States Constitution and article I, section 11 of the Wisconsin Constitution. We disagree and affirm. This opinion will not be published.
