The Defendant was charged with reckless driving after an officer observed him swerving in and out of traffic at a high rate of speed. The Defendant was in the Army, pending deployment to Afghanistan and needed the case resolved immediately. Any criminal convictions would revoke his military security clearance and render him un-deployable. After researching the officer’s arrest affidavit, the attorney challenged the legality of the stop with the state attorney’s office. The attorney’s challenge resulted in the state deciding to drop the charge completely.
