WI Court of Appeals – District IV

Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Lonnie P. Ayotte, Jr.,

Case No.: 2018AP839-CR

Officials: LUNDSTEN, P.J.

Focus: OWI – Motion to Suppress to Denied

Lonnie Ayotte appeals a judgment of the circuit court entered on a jury verdict finding him guilty of operating a motor vehicle with a prohibited alcohol concentration, as a fourth offense, contrary to WIS. STAT. § 346.63(1)(b) (2015-16). Ayotte argues that the circuit court improperly denied his motion to suppress the results of blood alcohol testing of his blood.

The suppression issue here is the same issue just resolved by our supreme court in State v. Randall, 2019 WI 80, __ Wis. 2d __, __ N.W.2d __. The Randall decision controls here, and requires that we affirm the circuit court.
