State v. Romanko

Summary

Justice Palmer concurred in the judgment affirming the defendant's conviction for operating a motor vehicle while under the influence. He disagreed with the conclusion that the trial court properly excluded the defendant's proposed courtroom demonstration of field sobriety tests, reasoning that the demonstration was intended to show the effect of a knee injury rather than reenact the arrest conditions. He nevertheless concluded that any error was harmless because the evidence of intoxication was overwhelming. No separate opinions were provided.
