State v. Trahan / Thompson (the State’s act of criminalizing a driver’s refusal to consent to blood alcohol testing violates due process).  This case has huge implications for the validity of many DUI prosecutions in the State of Minnesota.   The issue may have an impact on both refusal or test failure cases.  As a result, please consult your attorney immediately to determine the applicability of this new precedent to your specific Minnesota DWI case.  There are strict deadlines that your attorney will need to meet for both criminal and Implied Consent cases.
