<b>Franco v. Commonwealth</b><br />
<br />
<b>Facts:</b><br />
<br />
In a operating under influence (OUI) case in Boston, a police officer who observed defendant could offer an opinion as to defendant's level of intoxication arising from the consumption of alcohol, but could not offer an opinion as to whether defendant's intoxication impaired his ability to operate a motor vehicle. <br />

<b>Holdings:</b><br />
<br />
The Massachusetts Court made the following holding:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>In a prosecution for operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol, lay witnesses, including police officers, may not opine as to the ultimate question whether the defendant was operating while under the influence, but they may testify to his apparent intoxication. A lay witness's opinion as to whether a defendant's consumption of alcohol diminished the defendant's ability to operate a motor vehicle safely -- which is the test of whether the defendant was "under the influence" of alcohol while operating a motor vehicle, in violation of Mass. Gen. Laws Ann. 90, § 24, -- comes close to an opinion as to whether the defendant is guilty. The danger posed by a witness, especially a police officer witness, offering an opinion regarding a defendant's guilt is that the jury might forego independent analysis of the facts and bow too readily to the opinion of an expert or otherwise influential witness.</li>

<li> A motion for a required finding of not guilty will be allowed only where the evidence is insufficient as a matter of law to sustain a conviction on the charge. Mass. R. Crim. P. 25(a). The appellate court reviews the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution to determine whether any rational trier of fact could have found the essential elements of the crime beyond a reasonable doubt. A conviction may rest entirely on circumstantial evidence.</li>

The Massachusetts Court made the following holding:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>The offense of operation of a motor vehicle while under the influence of liquor causing serious bodily injury, pursuant to Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 90, § 24L(1), requires proof that the defendant was both under the influence of liquor and operating recklessly or negligently so as to endanger, and that such operation caused serious injury to the victim. That statute provides for only one form of misdemeanor, the crime of operating while under the influence of liquor causing serious bodily injury. Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 90, § 24L(2).</li>
<li>The verdict is the formal decision of the jury, empaneled and sworn to try the case, as reported to the court. The verdict which determines the rights of the parties, and is admitted of record, and upon which judgment is rendered, is the verdict received from the lips of the foreman in open court. A poll provides adequate evidence of the free and unanimous assent of the jury to the verdict, which is the purpose of the various customs and rituals that surround the taking of a verdict.</li>

The driver's refusal to submit to a chemical test when she was arrested for operating under the influence (OUI) in 2006 served as the basis for the enhanced license suspension of five years in light of the driver's two prior OUI convictions or admissions to drug treatment programs. The driver failed to show why she did not produce the police department reports at the board hearing. Accordingly, her license was properly suspended…<br />

Plaintiff argued
that his most recent OUI conviction in Boston, for which he alleged to have
received a 45-day license suspension, had to be the "final decision"
since both of his prior OUI convictions occurred over 20 years ago. The
appellate court disagreed. Under Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 90, § 24(1)(c)(3), the
Registrar was prohibited from restoring the license of a third-time OUI
offender such as plaintiff until eight years after the date of conviction.<o:p></o:p></div>

The motor vehicle
board suspended the driver's license in Boston.
The driver's refusal to submit to a chemical test when she was arrested
for operating under the influence (OUI) served as the basis for the enhanced
license suspension of five years in light of the driver's two prior OUI
convictions or admissions to drug treatment programs. The driver failed to show
why she did not produce the police department reports at the board hearing.<o:p></o:p></div>

burden of showing government agency, that the government knew of and

assist law enforcement efforts. Mere knowledge by a police officer that a
private individual may conduct a search is insufficient if the officer did
not direct or encourage the search. Evidence of the private searcher's
motive may include whether the police or other state officials made
promises to elicit the individual's help or offered or asked anything of
that individual. Even where a private party intended to assist law
enforcement, the private party does not become a government agent so long
as there is a legitimate independent motivation for the invasion.<o:p></o:p></li>

Following a de novo hearing in Boston, the motor vehicle board suspended the driver's license. The court found, inter alia, that the board did not commit error of law in its application of § 24(1)(f)(1) and the driver had no statutory basis for requesting review of the matter. The driver's refusal to submit to a chemical test when she was arrested for operating under the influence (OUI) in 2006 served as the basis for the enhanced license suspension of five years in light of the driver's two prior OUI convictions or admissions to drug treatment programs. The driver failed to show why she did not produce the police department reports at the board hearing. The certified copies of Arizona Motor Vehicle Division documents coupled with a matching photograph of the driver and her own admission that she paid a reinstatement fee constituted substantial evidence that the driver was the same person who was convicted of OUI in Arizona in 1998. Accordingly, her license was properly suspended.<o:p></o:p></div>

Following a de
novo hearing in Boston, the motor vehicle board suspended the driver's license.
The court found, inter alia, that the board did not commit error of law in its
application of § 24(1)(f)(1) and the driver had no statutory basis for
requesting review of the matter. The driver's refusal to submit to a chemical
test when she was arrested for operating under the influence (OUI) in 2006
served as the basis for the enhanced license suspension of five years in light
of the driver's two prior OUI convictions or admissions to drug treatment
programs. The driver failed to show why she did not produce the police
department reports at the board hearing. The certified copies of Arizona Motor
Vehicle Division documents coupled with a matching photograph of the driver and
her own admission that she paid a reinstatement fee constituted substantial
evidence that the driver was the same person who was convicted of OUI in
Arizona in 1998. Accordingly, her license was properly suspended.<o:p></o:p></div>

<ul style="margin-top: 0in;" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 11.55pt; text-align: justify;">The statutory maximum
sentence allowable for operating to endanger is two years in the house of

a death by operating under the influence of intoxicating liquor, by
operating negligently, or by operating recklessly. The three ways are
