Recent case DWI sentence vacated when state failed to prove that prior
conviction was not based on Alcotest breath sample held inadmissible by
Supreme Court, ruling stayed by Supreme court State v Zingis 471 N.J.
Super. 590 (App. Div. 2022)
Defendant
appeals his conviction after a trial de novo in the Law Division of
driving while intoxicated (DWI), contrary to N.J.S.A. 39:4-50. He also
appeals his sentence, arguing the court erred when it considered his
conviction to be a second DWI offense for sentencing purposes.
The
court affirms defendant's conviction. However, because the State did
not prove beyond a reasonable doubt that his prior DWI conviction was
not based on an Alcotest breath sample test result rendered inadmissible
by the holding in State v. Cassidy, 235 N.J. 482 (2018), the court
vacates his sentence, and remands for resentencing as a first offense.
Cassidy arose
from the misconduct of State Trooper Marc Dennis who falsified Alcotest
calibration records over a number of years. The Cassidy Court held that
breath sample test results obtained on Alcotest instruments calibrated
by Dennis are inadmissible, calling into question the validity of tens
of thousands of DWI convictions based on such results. The Cassidy Court
directed the State to provide notice to all defendants whose prior
convictions were subject to challenge because they were based on test
results from Alcotest instruments calibrated by Dennis. The State
subsequently compiled a list of defendants who received notice as
directed by Cassidy.
In
the Zingis appeal, defendant was convicted of DWI during the time
Dennis was falsely certifying Alcotest calibration records. At
sentencing for the present offense, Zingis argued the State was required
to produce the calibration records from his prior conviction to prove
that Dennis was not involved in his conviction. The trial court agreed
with the State's argument that the absence of defendant's name on the
list of defendants who were sent a Cassidy notice was sufficient proof
that defendant's prior conviction was not tainted by Dennis.
The
court held that in the absence of evidence of how the Cassidy list was
compiled and that it definitively includes all prior DWI convictions
that relied on test results from Alcotest instruments calibrated by
Dennis, the absence of a defendant's name on the list was insufficient
proof that the defendant's prior conviction was not invalidated
by Cassidy. The court made a similar holding with respect to the State's
assertion, without supporting evidence, that Dennis was not involved in
any DWI convictions that arose out of Camden County. The court noted
that the burden of Dennis's malfeasance as a law enforcement officer
falls on the State, which cannot escape on the grounds of convenience
and expediency its obligation to prove that a prior conviction on which
it relies for an enhanced sentence in a subsequent prosecution was not
tainted by his misconduct.
