STATE v. WALTHERS

No. C5-00-337.

620 N.W.2d 727 (2000)

STATE of Minnesota, Respondent, v. Corey Ryan WALTHERS, Appellant.

Court of Appeals of Minnesota.

December 26, 2000.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Mike Hatch, Attorney General, St. Paul, MN; and Boyd Beccue, Kandiyohi County Attorney, Tracy Perzel, Assistant County Attorney, Willmar, MN, for respondent.

John E. Mack, Mack & Daby, P.A., New London, MN, for appellant.

Considered and decided by TOUSSAINT, Chief Judge, CRIPPEN, Judge, and PETERSON, Judge.


OPINION

CRIPPEN, Judge

Appellant disputes the admission of prior-act evidence in the trial in which he was accused of furnishing alcohol to a minor. Because the prior conduct is not probative of an intent, preparation, or plan to commit the charged violation, and because appellant offered no defense of lack of opportunity, knowledge, identity, or mistake, we reverse the conviction and remand the case for disposition by the trial court.
