State v. Adams

Syllabus

The trial court erred in overruling Appellant's motion to suppress evidence. After a police officer administered a field sobriety test and told Appellant that he was not over the limit and was fine to go, the officer lacked a reasonable, articulable suspicion to administer further tests. However, whether Appellant thereafter voluntarily consented to a portable breath test must be considered on remand. In light of these conclusions, Appellant's remaining assignments of error are moot. Reversed and Remanded for further proceedings.
