State v. Anderson
Opinion of the Court
This is an appeal from an order of Hennepin County Municipal Court which rescinded an order of the commissioner of public safety revoking defendant’s driver’s license for refusal to permit chemical testing under Minn. St. 169.123. The trial court rescinded the revocation because it concluded that defendant’s refusal to submit to testing was reasonable in that he was merely following the advice of counsel. Subsequent to the filing of the trial court’s order, this court issued its opinion in State, Department of Public Safety, v. Lauzon, 302 Minn. 276, 224 N. W. 2d 156 (1974). In that case we stated that a refusal to submit to testing based upon advice given by counsel is unreasonable unless the police either misled the driver into believing that a refusal of this sort was reason
Reversed.
