DUI Roadblocks

Yesterday, I met with someone who was stopped in a DUI sobriety checkpoint or roadblock in Mt Juliet , Tennessee. So, I thought I would discuss DUI roadblocks today. The Tennessee Supreme Court has issued two key decisions in DUI roadblock cases. The cases are St. v Downey and St. v Hicks. The Court has set forth a standard for the roadblocks.They must be established accordance with predetermined operational guidelines and supervisory authority that minimize the risks of arbitrary intrusion on individuals and limit the discretion of police at the scene. I have to go to court so I will continue tomorrow. Visit my website www.Mckinneylawfirm.com for more information.
