Description
1 The State appeals from that portion of the order of the circuit court that dismissed a charge for reckless driving, WIS. STAT.§ 346.62(4) (2007-08), against Robert J. Featherston.The circuit court concluded that the State had not proven that a delay in charging Featherston, until after his seventeenth birthday, was not intentional for the purpose of avoiding juvenile court jurisdiction. The State argues that a charge under § 346.62(4) is not subject to a jurisdictional challenge. Because we conclude the circuit court did not address whether the delay in charging affected the charge under § 346.62(4), and the argument presented by the parties on appeal is being heard for the first time, we reverse and remand the matter to the circuit court for a new hearing. At that hearing the parties are free to raise the arguments they have raised to this court.
