Description
Appellant Thomas William Barrett refused to take the "breathalyzer" test to determine the alcoholic content of his blood after he was arrested for being in actual physical control of a motor vehicle while under the influence of intoxicating liquor. The arresting officer notified the Arizona Highway Department, Drivers License Service, of appellants arrest and refusal to take the breath test. Upon the basis of the affidavit presented by the officer, the State Motor Vehicle Department suspended the drivers license of appellant for six months pursuant to A.R.S. § 28-691(D). A hearing was held pursuant to A.R.S. § 28-691(E), and the suspension was upheld. The suspension was then challenged at a trial in the Superior Court of Maricopa County under authority of A.R.S. § 28-691(F). The trial court affirmed the suspension, and appellant appealed to the Court of Appeals. The Supreme Court has jurisdiction under 17A A.R.S. Supreme Court Rules, rule 47(e).
