Supreme Court of Arkansas
Edward Lockhart, Appellant v. State of Arkansas, Appellee
January 26, 20172017 Ark. LEXIS 18
Summary
The court affirmed Lockhart's convictions for sixth-offense driving while intoxicated and refusal to submit to chemical testing, holding that substantial evidence supported both convictions and that the traffic stop was supported by probable cause. It also held that Lockhart's challenges to the presentence-report requirement, the criminal information, and the admission of prior convictions did not warrant reversal, primarily because the sentencing issue was not preserved and the remaining claims lacked merit. Wynne, J., concurring in part and dissenting in part, would have reviewed the presentence-report issue and reversed and remanded on that issue.
