State v. Peters
Annotate this CaseIn this consolidated appeal, each Appellant was charged with DUI, and each took a breath test on the Intoxilyzer 8000. Each Appellant sought source code and other information related to the Intoxilyzer 8000 during the prosecution of their cases. The district court limited the requests of each Appellant. After these rulings, each Appellant pled guilty. The Supreme Court affirmed the district court on all issues, holding that the district court did not abuse its discretion (1) by giving full faith and credit to a Kentucky court's determination that the source code was a trade secret of CMI, Inc. and determining that Appellants did not show undue hardship requiring the court to order CMI to make the source code available to Appellants; and (2) by quashing portions of Appellants' subpoena duces tecum seeking information regarding the use of every Intoxilyzer 8000 in the state after finding the request was unreasonable and oppressive.
