When a driver is arrested on an OWI and refused a blood test, they receive an additional charge on top of the OWI. In the past, the refusal would also count as a previous offense in the future, even if you ultimately did not get charged with an OWI. In recent news, Wisconsin lawmakers have announced that refusal charges are no longer able to be used as previous offenses. Now, offenders might end up where they have two choices. Choose to plea the refusal charge and get the harshest punishment now, while taking the chance that next year the Supreme Court will not change the law back or take the OWI.
