With time winding down to his retirement from the bench later this week, Judge Fred Kawalski set bail and accepted pleas in a number of criminal cases called Monday in Langlade County Circuit Court.
Peter S. Beattie, 56, of Bryant was allowed release on a $300 cash bond after entering a plea of not guilty to a third offense of driving while intoxicated.
The charge dates to Saturday when his vehicle was found in a ditch in the town of Polar. Court records showed at the time of his arrest, he had a breath alcohol reading of .15 percent, nearly twice the prohibited limit.
