State v. Wright12/8/1993
e issue of the admissibility of a refusal to take a field sobriety test. See Farmer, 404 S.E.2d at 373 (seeing no reason to distinguish between refusal to take breath-alcohol test and refusal to take field sobriety test). Applying that reasoning, we hold that Defendant's right to be free of self-incrimination
was not violated by admission of the evidence that she refused to take a field sobriety test.
Conclusion
We hold that the admission of evidence relating to Defendant's refusal to take a field sobriety test did not violate the Fifth Amendment or Article II, Section 15, of the New Mexico Constitution. We affirm Defendant's conviction.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
