State v. Verdirome

Connecticut Superior Court

Decided September 26, 1980No. FILE NO. 847PublishedCited by 5 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtShea, J.

The defendant was found guilty by a jury of operating a motor vehicle while his driving license was under suspension in violation of General Statutes § 14-215. In this appeal the defendant claims that, in the absence of proof that he actually received notice of the suspension of his license, his conviction deprived him of his constitutional right to due process of law. He also claims error in a ruling admitting into evidence a certified copy of a motor vehicle department record when the certification bore only a rubber stamp purporting to be the signature of the commissioner of motor vehicles.
