68 JOURNAL OF PROCEEDINGS Aug. 6
MESSAGE FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE
June 1, 1982
The Honorable Benjamin L. Cardin
Speaker of the House of Delegates
State House
Annapolis, Maryland 21404
Dear Mr. Speaker:
In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the
Maryland Constitution, I have today vetoed House Bill 1305.
This bill amends Sec. 10-309 of the Courts and Judicial
Proceedings Article to provide that evidence a of chemical
analysis is not admissible in a prosecution for driving
while intoxicated or under the influence, "if obtained
contrary to...[the] provisions" of Subtitle 3 of Title 10 of
the Courts Article, but is not inadmissible for other
violations.
Senate Bill 383, which was passed by the General
Assembly and signed by me on May 3, 1982, accomplishes the
same purpose. Therefore it is not necessary for me to sign
House Bill 1305.
|

|

Sincerely,
Harry Hughes
Governor
