Supreme Court of Georgia

Licata v. the State.

March 11, 2019826 S.E.2d 94

Summary

The Supreme Court of Georgia held that Michael Licata was not in custody when asked to perform field sobriety tests, so Miranda‑type warnings were not required and the tests were admissible; it also vacated the appellate decision permitting the admission of Licata's refusal to submit to a breath test, remanding for further proceedings consistent with Elliott v. State.
