People v. Cady

The State appeals the Whiteside County circuit court’s grant of defendant David L. Cady’s motion in limine barring admission of the defendant’s breath-analysis result. This court must decide whether the circuit court erred when it concluded that the State had not met its burden to show that the breathalyzer unit used to test the defendant’s breath had been properly certified as accurate pursuant to the statute and applicable regulation. See 625 ILCS 5/11 — 501.2(a)(1) (West 1998); 77 Ill. Adm. Code § 510.100(a) (1996). Because we conclude that the State met its burden, we reverse and remand.
