Really? Admittedly hoping to gain publicity, a lawyer sued a police dog in connection with a dog bite incident. There’s a complaint with teeth. Sorry. Couldn’t resist. Read article

Can Your Inability to Urinate be the Basis of a DWI (VTL 1192.3) Refusal? :: New York Criminal Lawyer Blog
Believe it or not we run into this issue all the time, particularly with clients who are already charged and being monitored in the pretrial phase. They are unable to urinate when they come in to meet with their counselor at the pretrial program and end up in noncompliance and end up in dutch with prosecutors and judges prior to sentencing. It is assumed that they are being evasive because they expect to drop a dirty urine screen. This makes things very difficult for their OWI/DUI defense lawyer who must argue to the Court that they simply are unable to pee in front of others.

Mel Gibson’s Infamous DUI Expunged :: DUI Blogger
Interesting expungement system they have in California. I thought Wisconsin had the laxest DUI laws in the country and we needed a complete revamping of our system in order to deal with our terrible drunk driving rate. Perhaps we just need to work to change our drinking culture in Wisconsin. Find an experienced drunk driving lawyer.

Court of appeals rejects claim that 17-year-olds fall outside statute punishing contribution to child delinquency | State Bar of Wisconsin
This was a creative appellate argument. 17 year olds are “adults” automatically for criminal prosecution purposes in Wisconsin. The problem is that most of them don’t think like adults and they lack the capacity to see the consequences of their actions. While even 18 is arbitrary. It is far more palatable. Let’s think in terms of acting in the best interest of these children rather than punishing them in adult court. The court clearly got it right in upholding the lower court’s ruling protecting the child.

State Bar of Wisconsin | InsideTrack | Judicial campaign conduct committee work necessary, but not easy, says founder
It seems that some attempts are being made at tempering the negativity in judicial election campaigns. Thank goodness. We seem to expect it from our other elected officials even if we don’t like it. Somehow in judicial elections negative campaigning only sullies the reputation of the whole judiciary. Let’s stick to telling us why you’re qualified, not why the other guy is evil incarnate.

Sheboygan man sentenced in drunken-driving case – JSOnline
I pray for the victim and the family. I hope that the perpetrator will find a way to deal with both his guilt and his obvious drinking problem. Many will think that this is a terrible miscarriage of justice.
