Holdings:
The Virginia
Court made the following holding:
- As is well settled in a criminal
case resulting in a conviction, a Virginia appellate court reviews the
evidence, and all reasonable inferences, in the light most favorable to
the Commonwealth as the party prevailing below. That principle requires
the appellate court to discard the evidence of the defendant in conflict
with the Commonwealth's evidence and regard as true all evidence favorable
to the Commonwealth.
- The two offenses subject
to Va. Code Ann. § 19.2-294.1, driving under the influence and reckless
driving, are "separate and distinct" violations. Nevertheless,
the legislature intended that a conviction of one offense precludes
conviction of the other, whenever both grow from the same continuous,
uninterrupted course of operation of a motor vehicle. Thus, the statute is
applicable where the two offenses grow out of the same act or acts of
driving. It is the commonality of the underlying offending conduct, the
continuous, uninterrupted operation of a motor vehicle, that invokes the
preclusive effect of the statute.
