STATE OF WISCONSIN IN
COURT OF APPEALS
DISTRICT IV
STATE
OF WISCONSIN,
Plaintiff-Respondent,
v.
SUE S.
WOLLIN,
Defendant-Appellant.
APPEAL
from a judgment of the circuit court for Rock County: JAMES P. DALEY, Judge. Affirmed.
VERGERONT,
J.[1] Sue
S. Wollin appeals from a judgment of conviction for operating a motor vehicle
under the influence of an intoxicant in violation of § 346.63(1)(a), Stats.
The sole issue on appeal is whether her prosecution was precluded by the
Double Jeopardy Clause of the Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution
because she had previously been administratively suspended for the same
violation.
Wollin
acknowledges that in State v. McMaster, 198 Wis.2d 542, 543
N.W.2d 499 (Ct. App. 1995), petition for review granted, ___ Wis.2d ___,
546 N.W.2d 468 (1996), we held that criminal prosecution for operating a motor
vehicle with a prohibited blood alcohol concentration after administrative
suspension of operating privileges does not violate the Double Jeopardy Clause
of the Fifth Amendment. Id.
at 544, 543 N.W.2d at 499. Wollin explains
that she has raised this issue on appeal solely to preserve it for review.
McMaster is controlling.
We conclude that the prosecution did not violate the Double Jeopardy
Clause.
By
the Court.—Judgment affirmed.
This opinion will not be
published. See Rule 809.23(1)(b)4, Stats.
