Lawrence v. Commonwealth

Facts:

A general district court found defendant guilty of driving under influence (DUI) of alcohol under Va. Code Ann. § 18.2-266. Defendant appealed. A jury in the circuit court found defendant guilty as charged. The Circuit Court of Prince William (Virginia) denied defendant's motion to set aside the verdict and entered final judgment. Defendant appealed.

Holdings:

            The Virginia Court made the following holding:

  • When considering a criminal conviction, an appellate court reviews the evidence in the light most favorable to the Commonwealth. Viewing the evidence through this evidentiary prism requires the appellate court to discard the evidence of the accused in conflict with that of the Commonwealth, and regard as true all the credible evidence favorable to the Commonwealth and all fair inferences to be drawn therefrom.
  • Va. Code Ann. § 18.2-266(i) permits a factfinder to infer that the blood alcohol concentration (BAC) level determined by a timely breath test accurately states the BAC level at the time of driving. While sometimes called a "rebuttable presumption," the later-BAC-implies-prior-BAC principle underlying § 18.2-266(i) is no more than a permissible evidentiary inference that the factfinder may accept or reject. Understood that way, the inference violates no constitutional norms.
