Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District.

STATE OF MISSOURI, Respondent, v. DEWANA JEAN NICOLE GIVENS, Appellant.

WD87751

Decided: April 28, 2026

Before Division Three: Thomas N. Chapman, Presiding Judge, Karen King Mitchell, Judge, and Janet Sutton, Judge

Attorneys: Jedd Schneider, Columbia, MO, for appellant. Roger Johnson, Columbia, MO, for respondent.

ORDER

Dewana Givens appeals her convictions for one count of class B misdemeanor driving while intoxicated and one count of class A misdemeanor driving while revoked. She argues that insufficient evidence was presented from which a rational factfinder could find that she was intoxicated when she was driving. Because a published opinion would have no jurisprudential purpose, a memorandum explaining the reasons for this decision is provided to the parties. The judgment is affirmed. Rule 30.25(b).
