Drunk Driving Breath Test Results in Michigan DUI Trial
If you've been charged with a DUI in Michigan, the prosecutor will move to admit your chemical test results against you as evidence of your guilt. In order to do so, the prosecutor must establish the qualifications of the operator administering the test, the method or procedure followed in administering the test, that the test was performed within a reasonable time after the arrest, and the reliability of the testing device.
In Michigan, foundation testimony concerning these prerequisites must be introduced before the test results may be admitted into evidence.
