01-2093-CR State v. Galewski

By: dmc-admin//July 30, 2002//

Listen to this article

Jason D. Galewski appeals from an order denying his motion to suppress and a judgment convicting him of injury by intoxicated use of a motor vehicle. Galewski argues that the trial court erred by denying his suppression motion because the arresting officer lacked probable cause to administer a preliminary breath test (PBT) and therefore, lacked probable cause to arrest him.

We conclude that the officer had probable cause to administer the PBT and, therefore, affirm the conviction and the order denying Galewski’s suppression motion.

This opinion will not be published.
