EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) -- A judge has ordered a West Michigan lawmaker to perform 40 hours of community service and pay $1,101 for drunken driving.
State Rep. Rep. Bob Genetski received the sentence Wednesday in East Lansing District Court.
A Michigan State University police officer stopped him Jan. 19. A test at a hospital showed the lawmaker with a blood alcohol level of 0.09%. A reading of 0.08% or more is drunk under Michigan law.

The 45-year-old Saugatuck Republican took the case to trial, and a jury convicted him Sept. 25.
Genetski has said that he was driving slightly over the speed limit and heading to a motel after leaving the state Capitol area on the night of Gov. Rick Snyder's State of the State address.
