The Client’s vehicle was stopped by an Officer on a report of a vehicle stopped in an intersection. The Officer found the Client asleep in his vehicle at a stop light. When the Officer knocked on his window the Client immediately left the scene and began driving erratically. The Officer then conducted another traffic stop on the Client and observed signs of impairment by alcohol. The Client performed poorly on the field sobriety exercises and gave a breath sample more than twice the legal limit. The Firm began negotiations with the Assistant State Attorney, and it was agreed that because the Client had been cooperative and had no prior criminal record, the State would dismiss the DUI charge.
