Richard McKee v. RITT, A.A. No. 09-00046- Judicial Notice

Defendant appealed the decision of the Appeals Panel sustaining the violation of R.I.G.L. 1956 § 31-24-1 (times when lights are required). The Court held that the trial judge properly took judicial notice that the time at which the offense occurred (1:30a.m.) was between sunset and sunrise. Thus, the Court affirmed the decision sustaining the violation against the defendant.
