17                                 MEMORANDUM OPINION

18 VANZI, Judge.
 1   {1}   Defendant, Trisha Peralta, appeals her convictions for driving while under the

 2 influence of an intoxicating liquor and speeding. We issued a notice of proposed

 3 summary disposition proposing to affirm on October 29, 2014. Defendant filed a

 4 timely memorandum in opposition, which we have duly considered. We remain

 5 unpersuaded that our initial proposed disposition was incorrect. We therefore affirm.

 6 DISCUSSION

 7   {2}   In her memorandum in opposition, Defendant continues to argue that the district

 8 court erred in allowing the result of her BAT card into evidence because the State

 9 failed to lay a sufficient foundation for admission. Specifically, Defendant argues that:

10 (1) the district court improperly allowed Deputy Carrasco to refresh his recollection

11 regarding the proper unit of measurement by looking at information contained on the

12 BAT card [MIO 18-24], (2) Deputy Carrasco’s testimony as to the acceptable

13 temperature range for the calibration standard reliability and the acceptable error range

14 for the standard’s result was “fuzzy” [MIO 19], and (3) the deputy failed to explain

15 a conflict in the evidence relevant to the length of the deprivation period prior to

16 collecting the breath sample. [MIO 14-18]

17   {3}   The district court entered a memorandum opinion in Defendant’s on-record

18 appeal, addressing the first two of these issues. In our notice of proposed summary

19 disposition, we proposed to rely on its analysis, and we invited Defendant to explain

                                               2
 1 in her memorandum in opposition why the district court’s analysis of these issues was

 2 incorrect. [RP 90-96; CN 2] Specifically, the district court rejected Defendant’s

 3 argument that the deputy could not refresh his recollection as to the unit of grams of

 4 alcohol per milliliters of breath on the basis that the rules of evidence are not

 5 applicable, and that hearsay is admissible to establish a foundational element. See

 6 State v. Martinez, 2007-NMSC-025, ¶ 21, 141 N.M. 713, 160 P.3d 894 (stating that,

 7 in considering whether a foundational element is met, the trial court is not bound by

 8 the rules of evidence may consider hearsay). The district court also determined that

 9 the deputy’s testimony that he verified the temperature reading and calibration at the

10 time of the test and they were within the proper range was sufficient, and the deputy

11 did not have to have personal knowledge of the acceptable temperatures. [RP 95]

12   {4}   In her memorandum in opposition, Defendant does not address the district

13 court’s analysis of these issues, and nothing in her memorandum in opposition

14 persuades us that the district court incorrectly decided these issues. We therefore adopt

15 those portions of the district court’s opinion addressing these issues and reject these

16 assertions of error.

17   {5}   We also reject Defendant’s argument that the evidence was insufficient to

18 establish compliance with the requisite deprivation period. As Defendant notes in her

19 memorandum in opposition, Deputy Carrasco testified that he complied with the

                                               3
 1 required twenty-minute deprivation period and that he verified the time by using his

 2 stopwatch. [MIO 10] Defendant again points to evidence that the traffic stop occurred

 3 at around 12:55a.m., and the first breath sample was taken at 1:11 a.m., to argue that

 4 the State failed to establish compliance with the deprivation period. [MIO 14-18]

 5 However, any conflicts in the evidence were for the trial court to resolve. See In re

 6 Ernesto M., Jr., 1996-NMCA-039, ¶ 15, 121 N.M. 562, 915 P.2d 318 (“It was for the

 7 [trial] court as fact finder to resolve any conflict in the testimony of the witness and

 8 to determine where the weight and credibility lay.”). On appeal, we will not reweigh

 9 the evidence or substitute our judgment for that of the fact finder. State v. Sutphin,

10 1988-NMSC-031, ¶ 21, 107 N.M. 126, 753 P.2d 1314. As Defendant acknowledges,

11 Deputy Carrasco testified that 12:55 a.m. was an approximate time given by another

12 officer and that the stop occurred between 12:30 and 1:00. [MIO 16-17] Under these

13 circumstances, we believe that the State presented sufficient evidence of compliance

14 with the requisite deprivation period. See In re Ernesto M., Jr., 1996-NMCA-039,

15 ¶ 15 (stating that the question is whether the district court’s “decision is supported by

16 substantial evidence, not whether the court could have reached a different

17 conclusion”).

18   {6}   Because we reject Defendant’s arguments that the State failed to lay an

19 adequate foundation for admission of the BAT result, we also reject her argument that



                                               4
 1 error in the admission of the BAT result requires reversal of her conviction for DWI

 2 on an “impaired to the slightest degree” theory.

 3   {7}   Defendant also continues to argue that evidence was insufficient to convict her

 4 of speeding. [MIO 27] In our notice of proposed summary disposition, we noted that

 5 the district court addressed this same issue in its memorandum opinion, and we

 6 proposed to adopt its recitation of the facts and relevant testimony on this issue and

 7 to agree with its conclusion that the officer’s testimony was sufficient to establish

 8 speeding. [RP 96; CN 4] Defendant’s memorandum in opposition does not persuade

 9 us that the district court’s analysis of this issue was incorrect, and we therefore reject

10 her challenge to the sufficiency of the evidence.

11   {8}   For these reasons, we affirm the district court’s judgment on on-record

12 metropolitan court appeal.

13   {9}   IT IS SO ORDERED.
