July 2017 - OUI-Liquor 2nd Offense Dismissed OUI-Drugs 1st Offense Dismissed
Facts:
Police claimed my client's car crossed double solid yellow lines. After the police stopped the car, they claimed she was confused and that her eyes were slightly bloodshot and glassy. They went on to state she almost fell during the Field Sobriety tests.
Maximum Penalty:
Potential incarceration for no less than 60 days, 30 days mandatory, with a fine between $600 and $10,000, in addition to a 2 year loss of license for the conviction.
Outcome:
Both charges were dismissed after I filed motions to dismiss. One of the most important factors in this client's outcome, though, was her dedication to recovery. My client was able to prove that she would be the right candidate for probation by providing evidence of her active commitment. Recovery was a huge factor that helped allow these excellent results. Another great outcome after the client committed herself to remain clean and sober!
