Greene County Court of Criminal Appeals 12/01/10
State vs. Ann Elizabeth Martin

E1999-01361-CCA-R3-CD
Defendant Ann Elizabeth Martin was convicted of driving under the influence, first offense. In this appeal as of right she argues (1) the trial court erred when it did not suppress blood test results because of statutory and constitutional infirmities in the implied consent form; and (2) the stop of her vehicle and subsequent arrest are unconstitutional because the arresting officer did not have a reasonable articulable suspicion warranting a traffic stop. Held: the implied consent form complies with the statutory requirements. However, the officer who arrested Defendant did not have a reasonable articulable suspicion warranting a traffic stop. Defendant's conviction is reversed, and the case is remanded for dismissal of the charge.

E1999-00944-CCA-R3-CD
The Defendant was convicted of two counts of sexual battery.

The trial judge ordered that the Defendant serve 280 days of his sentences in the county jail, with the balance to be served on intensive probation.
