A police officer in an unmarked vehicle was on his way to investigate a shooting. As he was driving, the Defendant’s vehicle approached him extremely quickly, swerved into a turn lane, and cut off the officer. The officer conducted a traffic stop and noticed that the defendant smelled like alcohol, had a flush face and bloodshot eyes. Another officer was brought out to conduct the DUI investigation. The Defendant indicated he would not be able to pass the DUI tests. He admitted to drinking several drinks just prior to driving.

The Officer, after issuing the Client a traffic ticket, asked the Client if he could search the car for anything illegal and the Client gave him permission.

Client was charged with DUI and hired the firm. The Firm went to Court for the client and addressed with the State Attorney that the stop of the defendant's vehicle was improper. The stop was based upon the officer smelling an odor of alcohol as the defendant passed by him in a parking lot and having a "cold" open beer in the center console, also observed by the officer while the vehicle was in motion. The State agreed with the Firm and dismissed the DUI charges and the Defendant walked away without any criminal charges.
Our client was pulled over for allegedly “swerving all over the roadway.” She admitted to drinking beers and allegedly performed poorly on her roadside exercises.

The attorney convinced the State not to pursue charges of DUI or face a trial where the Firm would release competent evidence that officers used standardized exercises without any modification to test a partially paralyzed subject.
