Ex parte Boykin v. McHenry, 643 So.2d 986 (Ala. 1993)- [Required report]

Under § 32-5-192 [the state’s Implied Consent statute], the Department of Public Safety must receive from the law enforcement officer making the arrest a sworn report stating that the officer had reasonable grounds to believe that the arrested person had been driving a motor vehicle upon the public highways of this state under the influence of intoxicating liquor and that the person had refused to submit to the test. The record before us contains no sworn report from the arresting officer. It is necessary that a driver be arrested for driving under the influence of intoxicating liquor before the Alabama Department of Public Safety can suspend a driver’s license under the Implied Consent statute.
