WI Court of Appeals – District III

Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Denise R. Campbell

Case No.: 2018AP1190

Officials: SEIDL, J.

Focus: OWI – Reasonable Suspicion

The State appeals an order dismissing Denise Campbell’s citations for first-offense operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated (OWI) and operating a motor vehicle with a prohibited blood alcohol concentration (PAC). The State argues the court erred in concluding that the law enforcement officer who stopped Campbell’s vehicle lacked reasonable suspicion to justify an investigative stop. We agree with the State. We therefore reverse the circuit court’s dismissal of Campbell’s citations and remand the matter for further proceedings.
