Due Process

Defendant appealed the decision of the Appeals Panel sustaining the violation of R.I.G.L. 1956 § 31-14-2 (prima facie limits). The Court held that § 31-14-2 is to be read in conjunction with other sections and a penalty for the violation of § 31-14-2 does not violate the defendant’s constitutional right to due process. Accordingly, the Court affirmed the decision of the Appeals Panel sustaining the charge against the defendant. Zachary Lacourse v. Town of North Providence, A.A. No. 05-41 (April 3, 2006).pdf
