After a minor accident, our client was transported to the hospital for treatment. While he was at the hospital, medical staff relayed privileged information to law enforcement who had responded to the scene. Our client was asked to submit to a blood test to determine it’s alcoholic/chemical substance content. Our client refused to provide a blood sample. Law enforcement, even without any scientific evidence to support it, charged our client with a DUI. Upon receipt of the evidence, our attorney filed a Motion to Suppress our client’s refusal to submit to a blood test as it was improper procedure on the part of the police. Prior to a hearing on the Motion, the State dismissed the case.
