U.S. SUPREME COURT TO HEAR WI CASE ABOUT B.A.C TEST

U.S. SUPREME COURT TO HEAR WI CASE ABOUT B.A.C TEST

A Wisconsin case involving police taking a blood-alcohol test while a person was unconscious will be decided by the U.S. Supreme Court. 

Current state law states a person must consent to a blood-alcohol test if police have probable cause they’re driving impaired.  The case involves an officer that took a blood sample from a man he suspected was driving drunk while he was unconscious.  The suspect’s lawyer claims he should have had the right to withdraw consent.  A Supreme Court decision in the case is expected in June.
