Opinion

No. 02-1691.

February 5, 2003.

APPEAL from an order of the circuit court for Waukesha County: MICHAEL O. BOHREN, Judge. Affirmed.

¶ 1. NETTESHEIM, P.J.[fn1] [fn1] This appeal is decided by one judge pursuant to Wis. Stat. §752.31(2)(c) (1999-2000). All statutory references are to the 1999-2000 version.

William K. Brown appeals from an order revoking his driving privileges for refusing to submit to a chemical test pursuant to the implied consent law, Wis. Stat. § 343.305. Brown contends that the statute unconstitutionally coerces consent by threatening the revocation of the suspect's driving privileges. We recently rejected this very argument in State v. Wintlend , 2002 WI App. 314, No. 02-0965-CR. We affirm on the basis of Wintlend .

By the Court. — Order affirmed.
