Holdings:

The Massachusetts Court made the following holding:

  • Hospital records of blood tests with a bearing on the patient's degree of intoxication are admitted routinely in Massachusetts operation under the influence (OUI) prosecutions. The same rule holds for more personal, less scientific, judgments about alcoholic odor noted of record. It should make no difference that a nurse, not a physician, made the observation and entry. Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 111, § 70.
  • The proper procedures incident to a defendant's entitlement to a separate trial on the issue in operating under the influence cases can be found in Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 278, § 11A.
