State v. McGrath

Citations

  • 2021 Ohio 2605

Syllabus

The trial court did not err by overruling appellant's motion to suppress. The traffic stop was supported by a reasonable, articulable suspicion that appellant violated R.C. 4511.66(A) by parking his vehicle on the roadway, albeit slightly. Further, the officer's observations and appellant's admission of alcohol consumption provided reasonable, articulable suspicion to conduct field sobriety tests. However, the trial court's complete failure to advise appellant of the effect of a no contest plea requires vacation of the plea. Judgment reversed and remanded.
