WI Court of Appeals – District III

Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Charles David Sislo

Case No.: 2015AP73-CR

Officials: SEIDL, J.

Focus: Motion to Suppress – Court Error

Charles Sislo appeals a judgment of conviction for unlawful phone use, contrary to WIS. STAT. § 947.012(1)(c). Sislo argues the circuit court erroneously denied his motion to suppress the fruits of his arrest, asserting there was no probable cause to arrest, even considering the collectiveknowledge doctrine. Because the State fails to respond to Sislo’s argument, we reverse the conviction and remand with directions to grant Sislo’s suppression motion.
