DUI

While driving down the road, our client was involved in a minor car accident with a Florida Highway Patrol Trooper. Based on the Trooper’s observations, he called in a Supervisor to conduct a D.U.I. investigation. Our client was asked to perform a series of Field Sobriety Exercises and refused to do so. Our client was asked to provide a breath sample and refused to do so. Our client was arrested and charged with two (2) counts of D.U.I.
Upon receipt of the evidence from the Office of the State Attorney, our attorney filed a Motion to Suppress our client’s arrest based on how he appeared on video. The alleged “indicators of impairment” were not present on video as the Troopers claimed they were on scene.
Upon review of the Motion that was filed, the Office of the State Attorney agreed to reduce the charge. Our client resolved his case with no conviction, no points, and no DUI on his record.

Our Client was charged with driving without a valid driver license. The Client was stopped because the registered owner of the vehicle did not have a Florida driver license, not for any improper driving, The officer did not state in the probable cause affidavit if the registered owner was licensed in any other state or not. As such, we filed a motion to suppress all evidence obtained as the result of our Client being unlawfully seized (stopped) by the officer. Upon reviewing the motion, the prosecutor dropped the charge, as the prosecutor recognized the merits in our motion.

The client was stopped for speeding and slowing down in the roadway for no reason. Once stopped, the officer observed the odor of alcohol and the client admitted to smoking marijuana. The officer had the client perform field sobriety exercises, which the client performed poorly on. The officer then arrested the client for DUI. On the way to the jail the client stated he wasn’t that drunk and cried for 20 minutes straight. Once at the jail the client refused a breath sample. The Firm was retained and reviewed the video footage of the case. It was determined that the client simply was nervous and didn’t look that bad on the video. The Firm told the State that the case was a good case for trial and requested a dismissal. The State refused and the case was set for trial. Once the trial was complete the jury returned a not guilty verdict in under 5 minutes!!

Our client was stopped by the Seminole County Sheriff’s Office for Speeding. Upon investigation, a Deputy made alleged observations that he believed were consistent with our client being under the influence of alcohol. After a series of Field Sobriety Exercises, our client was arrested and charged with Driving Under the Influence.
Upon a review of the case, our attorney noticed that the video did not match the report when it came to our client’s performance on the Field Sobriety Exercises. In fact, on video, our client did not look impaired. Our attorney filed a Motion to Suppress the evidence against our client for the DUI. Once the Motion was filed, our attorney, using the years of relationships and reputation cultivated in the County, suggested to the Prosecutor that they watch the video prior to a hearing on the Motion. Once the Prosecutor watched the video, they dismissed the DUI against our client.

Our client was cited for racing after a long night at work. He was at one of his final lights before entering his community and got impatient. He accelerated quickly and sped to the final light. Officers of the Port St. Lucie Police Department observed his speed reaching the next light. They alleged a motorcycle was next to him but veered off into plaza. Because of this, he was charged with speeding. Despite the allegation, the officers failed to capture anything on video, and did not put in their reports of wheel spinning, chirping, or any other indicators of a race than mere speed and proximity of the motorcycle. The jury came back with a verdict of Not Guilty in roughly 30 minutes. -June 26, 2024.

In 2014, our client was placed on a period of probation for one year in Alachua County. There was a technical violation alleged and an outstanding warrant for violation of probation issued. Our firm was retained in 2024 to resolve this matter. Immediately we reached out to the State and asked them to dismiss based on a Mobley issue. Mobley v. State is a Florida case that states prior to 2017 an affidavit of violation alleging a technical violation of misdemeanor probation does not toll or stop the defendant’s probation period. Our client’s probation period was 12 months and a VOP warrant was issued in 2014. However, because they never picked him up on the warrant, the warrant and the violation being filed did not stop the probation period and after 12 months the state no longer had jurisdiction to prosecute him. The State agreed they lacked subject matter jurisdiction and consented to an unopposed motion to dismiss. Case Closed.

Our client was involved in a motor vehicle accident. During the crash investigation, the officers on scene stated that our client displayed slurred speech, bloodshot eyes, and that there was an odor of alcohol on his breath. Our client also admitted to drinking wine prior to driving. Due to the severity of the accident, the officers did not ask our client to perform field sobriety exercises and instead asked him to provide a breath sample to determine the alcohol content of his breath. Our client refused and was subsequently arrested and charged with Driving Under the Influence with Property Damage, a 1st degree misdemeanor with a maximum penalty of 364 days in jail. The Ticket Clinic’s lead trial attorney for Broward County filed a motion to suppress, alleging that the officer’s request for a breath test was illegal and should be excluded from evidence. The court agreed and granted the motion, ordering that any evidence of our client’s refusal to submit to a breath test was inadmissible. Our attorney set this case for trial and on the day of trial, the State was forced to dismiss all charges against our client.

Our client was pulled over for going 82 in a 45-mph zone. During the traffic stop, the officer observed our client fail to maintain a single lane and noted that he observed a very strong odor of alcohol coming from the vehicle and that our client had a difficult time providing his license, registration, and proof of insurance. Based on his observations, the officer asked our client to perform field sobriety exercises as part of his DUI investigation. Our client repeatedly asked for a creole speaking officer because he was having a hard time understanding the instructions, which were read in English. After performing field sobriety exercises, our client was arrested and charged with DUI. The officer asked him to provide a breath sample in English, and when our client again asked for a creole interpretation, the officer instead read the request a second time in Spanish, a language our client does not speak. The Ticket Clinic’s lead trial attorney for Broward County filed a motion asking the Judge to exclude all evidence of the officer’s request for a breath sample and set the case for Jury Trial. On the day of trial, the State Attorney’s Office dismissed the DUI charge and our client accepted a plea to the reduced charge of Reckless Driving.
