Our Client was arrested for DUI, but the case was a triple refusal: no field sobriety exercises, breath test or questions/answers. Prior to making a request for a wet reckless, out Client completed DUI school; the counseling required by the school; a 12-hour advanced driver improvement school; attended MADD’s victim impact panel; impounded his vehicle for 10 days; and, submitted to testing at Quest Labs. Our employment requires travel back and forth across the Canadian border. A DUI conviction would result in our Client’s employment being terminated, as a DUI conviction bars entry into Canada. Our Client is the sole breadwinner for the family, including two children. Our Client has no other experience or skills outside of the current employment; thus, the potential for finding other employment is quite bleak. Through proper negotiation with the State, our Client was permitted to plea to a wet reckless, avoiding a devastating DUI conviction.
