The Defendant was charged with DUI after he was stopped for not using a turn signal when he was making a u-turn. The Defendant performed poorly on the field sobriety exercises and blew over the legal limit. The Firm filed a motion to suppress the stop of the Defendant’s vehicle based upon an improper stop. The State, upon seeing said motion, immediately offered to amend client’s charges to reckless driving. The Firm, knowing that the motion was a strong motion, decided to decline that offer and argue the motion. The State then dismissed all charges.
