The Sixth Appellate District reversed an order. The court held that a forensic laboratory report of a driver’s blood alcohol content that stated that the test results were recorded at the time of the analysis was admissible under the public employee records exception to the hearsay rule in the administrative hearing that led to suspension of the driver’s license.
Martin Miyamoto was arrested for driving under the influence on March 16. Miyamoto surrendered his driver license to police. Miyamoto’s blood samples were sent to the county crime lab for analysis. According to the lab report, Miyamoto’s blood alcohol content (BAC), analyzed on March 23, was twice the legal limit.
