Annotations

Conclusory notation of "D.U.I." provides no factual reason for an officer's decision to arrest a driver on suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol instead of merely citing the driver for speeding when excessive speed was the initial reason for the stop. Snyder v. Department of Motor Vehicles, 274 Neb. 168, 736 N.W.2d 731 (2007).


In an administrative license revocation proceeding, the sworn report of the arresting officer must, at a minimum, contain the information specified in subsection (3) of section 60-498.01 in order to confer jurisdiction. Snyder v. Department of Motor Vehicles, 274 Neb. 168, 736 N.W.2d 731 (2007).
