commenced." State v.
Maass, 178 Wis.2d 63, 67, 502 N.W.2d 913, 915 (Ct. App. 1993).
Because it
would tend to establish whether one of the elements of § 346.63(1)(a), Stats., exists for operating under the
influence, Brockman's HGN test result is significant evidence. The trial court's order barred its
admission. The State may appeal the
order under § 974.05(1)(d)2, Stats.

EXPERT WITNESS
Whether a
witness is qualified as an expert is a discretionary determination for the
trial court. State v. Donner,
192 Wis.2d 305, 317, 531 N.W.2d 369, 374 (Ct. App. 1995). The court properly exercises its discretion
when it applies the correct theory of law to the facts of record in a reasoned
manner. Hartung, 102
Wis.2d 58, 66, 306 N.W.2d 16, 20 (1981).
If the witness knows something beyond that generally known, the witness
is an expert. State v.
Hollingsworth, 160 Wis.2d 883, 896, 467 N.W.2d 555, 560 (Ct. App.
1991).
The trial
court ruled that Dr. Godich was not qualified because his opinions were based
on hearsay, since no evidence existed that the articles he brought to the
hearing came under the learned treatise exception, but even if they did the
State had not complied with the forty-day notice requirement in that exception,
§ 908.03(18)(a), Stats.
