A: It sounds rather ... complicated. So, the 2007 MN DWI is over and done - probation ended? Or, the WI DWI still in probation triggered a MN probation violation? On the 2007 case? A different case? The way to start untangling that knot is probably going to be to pick up the telephone and make a live call to me or another defense lawyer.
