Charge: DWI
Facing: 6 months in jail
Result: Not Guilty

Our client pulled up to a Driver's License Checkpoint after leaving a local bar. He was initially very nervous and couldn't get through the alphabet despite being given four opportunities. He did not perform satisfactorily on further field sobriety testing according to the officer and was arrested. Despite blowing .08 on the EC-IR II, we successfully argued that there was reasonable doubt as to our client's appreciable impairment and we asked the judge to render a not guilty verdict. The judge agreed.
