25********* Monroe County

Officers alleged that our client was “braking erratically” and “driving all over the road” when they conducted a traffic stop in Monroe County, FL. When they approached the vehicle, officers alleged that our client immediately spontaneously admitted to having one drink. Not wanting to listen to anything further, officers asked our client to consent to field sobriety exercises, which she did. She was then arrested for DUI and was brought to the breath testing center where she continued to cooperate by providing 2 breath samples – .148 and .149. Our client later called and hired us to work on the case. We immediately began working on the case and investigating the stop. We spoke with the prosecutors and addressed some of the legal and factual issues we saw upon our review. After speaking with the State, they agreed to dismiss the DUI charge.
