Jackson v. Commonwealth

Facts:

Defendant appealed from a judgment of the Circuit Court of Loudoun (Virginia), which convicted him of driving under the influence (DUI), a third or subsequent offense within five years in violation of Va. Code Ann. § 18.2-266, and of driving after being declared an habitual offender.

Holdings:

The Virginia Court made the following holding:

•  Evidence of prior driving under the influence (DUI) convictions and evidence of prior traffic records are not the same. Traffic records as contemplated by Va. Code Ann. § 46.2-943 contain prior suspensions and revocations of a driver's license and prior convictions of moving traffic violations, including, but not limited to, DUI convictions. Thus, while evidence of a prior DUI conviction may be a part of a traffic record, such evidence does not necessarily constitute the traffic record for purposes of the application of Va. Code Ann. § 46.2-943.

Benjamin v. Commonwealth

Facts:

Defendant was convicted in the Loudoun General District Court (Virginia) for driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI) in violation of Va. Code Ann. § 18.2-266. On a de novo appeal, he filed a motion to dismiss the charge and a motion to declare parts of Va. Code Ann. §§ 18.2-269 and 18.2-270 unconstitutional.

Holdings:

The Virginia Court made the following holding:

• The civil penalty of a sixty-day administrative license suspension, coupled with a subsequent driving under the influence prosecution, is not violative of the Double Jeopardy clauses or of Va. Code Ann. § 19.2-294. The purpose of Va. Code Ann. § 46.2-391.2's administrative license suspension (ALS) requirements is civil in nature. The purpose of revoking a driver's license is not to punish the offender but to remove from the highways an operator who is a potential danger to other users. The ALS in Va. Code § 46.2-391.2 is a remedial sanction because its purpose is to protect the public from intoxicated drivers and to reduce alcohol related accidents and, therefore it does not constitute punishment for purposes of double jeopardy. Confirming this, the legislative history provides that the General Assembly was motivated by its desire to reduce alcohol-related crashes, fatalities, and injuries, and not to impose punishment.

Jim v. Commonwealth

Facts:

Following defendant's DUI arrest in Loudoun, defendant's operator's license was suspended for seven days pursuant to Va. Code Ann. 46.2-391.2, when testing revealed that defendant's blood alcohol content was greater than .08 grams per 210 liters of breath. Defendant moved to dismiss the outstanding DUI warrant, alleging that both the administrative license suspension (ALS) and the DUI warrant placed him twice in jeopardy in violation of the Fifth Amendment. The court denied the motion. The court concluded that the ALS constituted punishment, that the ALS and DUI were separate judicial proceedings, and that double jeopardy would attach only if the commonwealth pursued both the ALS action and the DUI prosecution based upon the per se results of the blood test pursuant to Va. Code Ann. § 18.2-266(i). If the commonwealth relied on refusal to take the blood alcohol test as a basis for the ALS action, its DUI prosecution under Va. Code Ann. §§ 18.2-266(ii), (iii), or (iv) would not trigger the double jeopardy bar. Given that defendant's warrant alleged only a general violation of Va. Code Ann. § 18.2-266, the court denied defendant's motion to dismiss until the commonwealth offered its proof.

Holdings:

The Virginia Court made the following holding:

• The elements necessary for proof of the administrative license suspension are that the defendant must have refused a breath test or registered a blood alcohol content of .08 or higher and a warrant alleging violation of Va. Code Ann. § 18.2-266 or Va. Code Ann. § 18.2-268.3 must issue. The elements necessary for proof of the driving under the influence prosecution are that the defendant must have been operating a motor vehicle and the defendant must have violated one of the subsections of Va. Code Ann. § 18.2-266.

Xavier v. Commonwealth

Facts:

After the Circuit Court of Loudoun (Virginia) denied defendant's motion to strike on the ground that defendant had failed to give proper notice of his challenge pursuant to Va.

Holdings:

The Virginia Court made the following holding:

• An appellate court utilizes an abuse of discretion standard when reviewing the trial judge's denial of an appellant's motion to consider a challenge to the constitutionality of a statute made after the statutory deadline Va. Code Ann. § 19.2-266.2. Under Va. Code Ann. § 19.2-266.2, defendants are required to take certain procedural steps in order to exercise or vindicate their constitutional rights. Such requirements are not unconstitutional but serve legitimate state interests in protecting against surprise, harassment, and undue delay. The Court of Appeals of Virginia has refused to consider a challenge to the constitutionality of a statute where a motion for dismissal of warrant or indictment on the ground that a criminal statute is unconstitutional was not properly presented to the trial court in compliance with Va. Code Ann. § 19.2-266.2.
