1Opinion of the Court
SANDSTROM, Justice.
A jury found Craig Holden guilty of driving under the influence of alcohol. Holden appeals from the judgment of conviction, contending a Highway Patrol officer should have been removed from the jury for cause, and the case should have been dismissed or an adverse-inference instruction given because a law enforcement videotape was missing. We affirm.
I
On February 6, 1993, a Bismarck police officer arrested Craig Holden for driving under the influence of alcohol. Holden’s field sobriety tests were videotaped. The case was removed to County Court, and a jury trial demanded.
