People v. Zinn
Supreme Court of Colorado
1Opinion of the CourtJustice Kirshbaum
The People appeal the trial court’s judgment declaring section 42-2-122(l)(i), 17 C.R.S. (1984 & 1991 Supp.), unconstitutional as violative of the due process rights of the defendant, Michael Zinn. 1 This statute requires a trial court to confiscate a defendant’s driver’s license immediately upon the defendant’s conviction for the unlawful use, sale or possession of a controlled substance 2 and to forward that license, together with a notice of the defendant’s conviction, to the Department of Motor Vehicles. We reverse the trial court’s judgment and remand the case for further proceedings.
