While driving down the road, our client was involved in a minor car accident with a Florida Highway Patrol Trooper. Based on the Trooper’s observations, he called in a Supervisor to conduct a D.U.I. investigation. Our client was asked to perform a series of Field Sobriety Exercises and refused to do so. Our client was asked to provide a breath sample and refused to do so. Our client was arrested and charged with two (2) counts of D.U.I.
Upon receipt of the evidence from the Office of the State Attorney, our attorney filed a Motion to Suppress our client’s arrest based on how he appeared on video. The alleged “indicators of impairment” were not present on video as the Troopers claimed they were on scene.
Upon review of the Motion that was filed, the Office of the State Attorney agreed to reduce the charge. Our client resolved his case with no conviction, no points, and no DUI on his record.
