Supreme Court of Georgia

La Anyane v. State

March 4, 2025321 Ga. 312

Summary

The court affirmed La Anyane’s convictions, holding that her consent to a blood test was free and voluntary despite the implied-consent warning, so the blood draw complied with the Fourth Amendment. Because her as-applied challenge failed, she lacked standing to pursue a facial challenge to the statutory scheme. The court also held that the trial court acted within its discretion in excluding an inadequately authenticated field-sobriety study and admitting blood-alcohol evidence in the DUI-less-safe prosecution.
