2020Cf. Birchfield v. North Dakota, 136 S. Ct. 2160, 2173 (2016) (stating taking a blood sample is a search and a warrant must usually be secured for a search to be “reasonable,” but a number of exceptions to the warrant requirement may apply).

2017In Birchfield v. North Dakota , 136 S.Ct. at 2185 , in the context of analyzing implied-consent laws under the consent exception to the warrant requirement, the Court said nothing in that case should be read to cast doubt on the “general concept of implied-consent laws that impose civil penalties and evidentiary consequences on motorists who refuse to comply” with those laws.

North Dakota , does not change our analysis in Baxter for pre-arrest onsite screening tests of an individual’s breath for purposes of administrative license proceedings.

2023B [¶21] The State argues the district court erred in determining the evidence was not admissible under the inevitable-discovery doctrine. [¶22] “The inevitable-discovery doctrine provides that evidence obtained from information procured in an unlawful search or seizure is admissible under the fruit-of-the-poisonous-tree doctrine if the evidence would inevitably have been discovered without the unlawful conduct.” State v. Stewart, 2014 ND 165, ¶ 17 , 851 N.W.2d 153 (quoting State v. Smith, 2005 ND 21, ¶ 31 , 691 N.W.2d 203 ).

2017He argues there was no other reason to enter the home, to conduct a search, or to seize evidence without a warrant. [¶ 28] Relying on State v. Stewart, 2014 ND 165, ¶ 18 , 851 N.W.2d 158 , and Johnson, 301 N.W.2d at 629 , Friesz contends that law enforcement may not act in bad faith or take shortcuts to hasten the seizure of evidence and that the existence of probable cause does not negate the warrant requirement.
