The client was stopped for speeding and slowing down in the roadway for no reason. Once stopped, the officer observed the odor of alcohol and the client admitted to smoking marijuana. The officer had the client perform field sobriety exercises, which the client performed poorly on. The officer then arrested the client for DUI. On the way to the jail the client stated he wasn’t that drunk and cried for 20 minutes straight. Once at the jail the client refused a breath sample. The Firm was retained and reviewed the video footage of the case. It was determined that the client simply was nervous and didn’t look that bad on the video. The Firm told the State that the case was a good case for trial and requested a dismissal. The State refused and the case was set for trial. Once the trial was complete the jury returned a not guilty verdict in under 5 minutes!!
