After being arrested for DUI, DeVore’s client asked the arresting officer for a chance to contact someone to conduct an independent alcohol concentration test following the Intoxilyzer test the defendant had just taken at the police station. During the exchange between the police station and the jail, the defendant’s request was mishandled and ultimately the defendant was denied his right to obtain the independent test. An implied consent hearing with testimony from several witnesses was necessary to flush out the details. Following the trial, a Dakota County Judge ruled that police violated DeVore’s client’s right to an independent test. As a result, the client’s driver’s license was reinstated.
