Description
BRYNER, Chief Judge. OPINION On December 27, 1979, Bette M. Anderson entered a plea of nolo contendere in the district court to a charge of driving with a blood alcohol level of 0.10 percent or more, in violation of former Anchorage Municipal Ordinance (AMO) 9.28.030. 1 Upon her plea, Anderson was convicted and sentenced to serve ninety days in jail, with all but ten days suspended, and to pay a fine of $500. As an additional part of the sentence, Anderson's driver's license was suspended for one year. Anderson appealed to the superior court. The superior court subsequently affirmed Anderson's sentence, and this appeal followed. On appeal to this court, Anderson asserts, as she did below, that the sentence imposed by the district court following her conviction of the municipality's 0.10 percent ordinance was unlawful. Having considered the arguments of the parties, we have concluded that the sentence received by Anderson was prohibited by Alaska law; 2 accordingly, we reverse.
