Attorney General Alan Wilson, Senior Assistant Deputy Attorney General William M. Blitch, Jr. and Solicitor Barry J. Barnette, of Columbia, for Petitioner. Kenneth Taylor, pro se Respondent. Jason Scott Luck of Bennettsville as Amicus Curiae for South Carolina Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers.

The magistrate dismissed this DUI case because Respondent was heard but not shown on the video recording while being advised of his Miranda rights, finding this was in violation of S.C. Code Ann. § 56-5-2953(A). The circuit court and court of appeals affirmed. State v. Taylor, Op. No. 2020-UP-215 (S.C. Ct. App. filed July 15, 2020). The Court granted the State's petition for a writ of certiorari to review the court of appeals' decision.

David Alexander, of Columbia, for Appellant. Attorney General Alan McCrory Wilson and Joshua Abraham Edwards, both of Columbia , for Respondent.

Appellant appeals her conviction for felony DUI resulting in death, arguing the circuit court erred in denying her motion to suppress BAC evidence obtained from a warrantless blood draw taken after her arrest. The Court of Appeals requested certification to the Supreme Court pursuant to Rule 204(B), SCACR. The Court will consider whether section 56-5-2946 of the South Carolina Code is constitutional and whether a warrantless blood draw is permissible as a search incident to arrest.

On appeal, the court of appeals found the issue not preserved for review, and we granted certiorari.
