The Client was arrested for a DUI after he was allegedly involved in a vehicle accident. Emergency medical personnel met with the Client in his vehicle and then he was taken to the ambulance to be treated. Law enforcement arrived on scene and noticed that the Client seemed to be impaired by alcohol. The Officer requested the Client perform field sobriety exercises, which the Client declined to do. The Client was then arrested for DUI where he refused to provide a breath sample. The Firm immediately determined that there was a problem with the arrest of the Defendant, as there was no law enforcement Officer that witnessed him driving the vehicle. In addition, there was an extreme lack of evidence in that the Client refused all tests by law enforcement. The State agreed and dismissed the DUI.
