State v. Chaussee
Annotate this CaseJohn Chaussee was charged with driving under the influence of alcohol. The offense was alleged to be Chaussee's fourth DUI conviction, making it a felony. Chaussee filed a motion to dismiss, arguing that two of his prior DUI convictions were constitutionally invalid. The district court denied the motion. Chaussee pleaded guilty, reserving his right to appeal the denial of his motion. At issue on appeal was whether Chaussee sufficiently demonstrated that his prior convictions were constitutionally infirm. The Supreme Court affirmed the district court's denial of Chaussee's motion to dismiss, holding that Chaussee failed in his burdens of production and persuasion to demonstrate that his prior convictions were constitutionally invalid.
