The question of what is or is not a technicality would not be for me to determine. I understand, however, that there is one case before the High Court relating to the law which makes it an offence for a person to drive or attempt to drive with more than a prescribed amount of alcohol in his blood or urine. The case is one in which a conditional order of certiorari has been granted against a decision of a district justice.
