WI Court of Appeals – District III
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. James R. Mueller
Case No.: 2018AP44-CR
Officials: HRUZ, J.
Focus: Sufficiency of Evidence
James Mueller appeals a judgment, entered following a jury trial, convicting him of fourth-offense operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of intoxicants or drugs. Mueller argues the circuit court erred by denying his motion to suppress evidence obtained after a traffic stop, contending the police officer lacked reasonable suspicion to extend the traffic stop and lacked probable cause to arrest Mueller. Mueller also challenges the sufficiency of the evidence upon which the jury found him guilty. We affirm.
