2025CT########## Palm Beach County

The Client was stopped for failing to maintain a single lane.  Once stopped the officer noticed signs of impairment by alcohol and had the Client submit to field sobriety exercises.  The Client performed poorly on the exercises.  Once arrested for DUI, and after being transported to the jail, the Client failed to provide a breath sample.  The Firm was retained and argued to the State that there may be a possible motion to suppress the stop of the Client’s vehicle.  The motion would have been based upon the case law showing that other traffic needs to be affected in a failure to maintain lane infraction stop.  In addition, the Client had no prior DUI history.  The State agreed and dismissed the DUI charge.
