Decision Date: 
Thursday, May 22, 2014
District: 
2d Dist.
Division/County: 
Boone Co.
Holding: 
Affirmed as modified in part and reversed in part; remanded.
Justice: 
McLAREN
Defendant was convicted, after bench trial, of failure to stop after accident involving personal injury and two counts of DUI. Court erred in admitting breathalyzer machine logbook into evidence, as State failed to lay necessary foundation as State presented no testimony that officer documented and signed logbook at time of certification of accuracy of machine or within a reasonable time thereafter. (BURKE and HUDSON, concurring.)
