State v. Clapp
Court of Appeals of North Carolina
1Opinion of the Court
BERGER, Judge.
*840 John Leonard Clapp III ("Defendant") was arrested on September 5, 2015 for driving while impaired. Less than three hours later, Defendant was again arrested for driving while impaired and, because of his first arrest, driving while license revoked. Defendant moved to suppress evidence which the State planned on using to prove his second driving while impaired arrest, and the trial court granted this motion. The State appeals, arguing that the uncontroverted evidence was sufficient to establish probable cause for Defendant's arrest. We agree, and therefore reverse.
