North Dakota v. Rende

Laura Rende appealed after a jury found her guilty of driving while under the influence of alcohol. The North Dakota Supreme Court reversed the criminal judgment and remanded this case for a new trial, finding that the disclosure of a preliminary breath test result during Rende's trial violated the legislative directive contained in N.D.C.C. 39-20-14(3), was not harmless error, and required the granting of Rende's request for a mistrial.
