The defendant was stopped for having an expired license tag. The officer noticed that the defendant had an odor of an alcoholic beverage on his breath as well as other indicators of alcohol impairment. The defendant was asked to perform roadside sobriety exercises and did so poorly. The defendant was arrested thereafter and submitted to the breath test. The Firm wrote a letter to the Office of the State Attorney and outlined the circumstances surrounding the arrest. The state then declined to file formal charges of DUI against the Defendant.
