Procedural History

• Appeal from the District Court of Bernalillo County, Stan Whitaker, District Judge: The Defendant was convicted of driving while intoxicated.

Legal Issues

• Whether the evidence was sufficient to support the Defendant's conviction of driving while intoxicated.

Disposition

• The Court of Appeals affirmed the judgment and sentence entered by the lower court.

Reasons

• Linda M. Vanzi, Judge, with Jacqueline R. Medina, Judge, and Briana H. Zamora, Judge concurring, authored the memorandum opinion. The Court held that it is the role of the fact-finder to resolve conflicting testimony and that a reviewing court does not reweigh evidence for the purpose of making credibility determinations. The Defendant's repetition of earlier arguments in her memorandum in opposition to the proposed summary disposition did not specifically point out errors of law and fact, which left the Court unpersuaded to overturn the trial court's findings (paras 1-3).
