The Defendant was observed by the officer driving off the road into the grass a few times and was stopped by the officer. He had red, glassy eyes, a flushed face and after looking at his registration three times, he said it was not what he wanted. He smelled like alcohol and was asked to perform roadside tasks. His speech was slow and slurred and he continually told the officer during roadsides that he was clumsy and would start limping around. He performed poorly on the roadsides and could not correctly state the alphabet. After being arrested, he was transported to the breath facility where he refused to submit to a sample of his breath. The firm received the videos from the police department and successfully convinced the State of Florida to dismiss the charges for Driving Under the Influence.
