Non-Compliance Suspension

Ohio DUI Law: State v. Shuler (Portable Breath Test Not Allowed)

Posted by Dayton DUI

in Case Law

Portable Breath Test Not Allowed The Fourth District Court of Appeals slammed the use of portable breath tests as trial evidence in State v. Shuler, 168 Ohio App.3d 183, 2006-Ohio-4336.
