The court convicted the defendant of driving a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol and sentenced her to a fine, a four-year ban on driving, and monetary compensation. The prosecution argued that the high blood alcohol level justified a ban exceeding the statutory minimum, while the defense raised no significant counter-arguments regarding the conviction itself. The court upheld the conviction and penalties, noting the defendant's prior record and the need for public deterrence, while exempting her from court costs due to financial hardship.
