Carolina Criminal & DUI Lawyer Blog
The North Carolina Court of Appeals has weighed in, again, penning an opinion that will likely affect DUI Checkpoints in Charlotte NC.
Judge Davis, joined by concurrence with Judges Calabria and Elmore, in North Carolina v. Macdonald (also referred to as State v. Macdonald) has vacated the ruling by Mecklenburg County Superior Court Judge Hugh Lewis and remanded the matter back to Mecklenburg Superior Court for further findings.
Checkpoints involve more than just DWI charges. Law enforcement may call them “Drunk Driving” checkpoints, license checks, safety stops, and even missing or “wanted person” checks.
