State v. Barman
Court of Appeals of Wisconsin
Decided March 15, 1994No. 93-2102-CRPublishedCited by 14 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtLaROCQUE, J.
The State appeals an order dismissing charges of homicide by negligent operation of a vehicle filed against William Barman. The State contends that the court erred by ruling that Barman had established a prima facie case of discriminatory prosecution in violation of the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. The State also contends that even if a prima facie case were made, the claim was adequately rebutted by a showing of a valid exercise of prosecutorial discretion. We agree with the State and reverse the order of dismissal.
