He wanted the case dismissed, but an appeals court judge in Lake County is allowing a felony case against Lake County sheriff Oscar Martinez Jr. to proceed.

The court found no reason to through the case out in a three-nothing vote.

The case accuses Martinez of resisting law enforcement and misdemeanor reckless driving after he was seen driving well above the posted speed limit in his unmarked cruiser in Crown Point with emergency lights off.

He didn’t stop when other officers started chasing him.

He then turned his emergency lights on which ended the chase.
