Dismissal

Summary:  The client is a small business owner of his own Painting and Power Washing company. He admittedly was on his way home from a bar at 2am and was stopped for running a red light. Officer claimed to observe several signs of intoxication such as the strong odor of alcohol on his breath, slurred speech, slightly unsteady on his feet, and red eyes.

Officer alleged that client failed the field sobriety tests, and the client refused to submit to a breath test.  Officer then got a search warrant to get the client’s blood drawn.  Chris was able to show the district attorney there were flaws on how the officer graded and administered the field sobriety tests thus putting the client at a disadvantage.  Furthermore, Chris was able to point out flaws in the blood result on how the blood was drawn as well as issues with the chain of custody on how the blood was handled and transported, which could falsely elevate the blood result as well as question the credibility of the blood score altogether.  DWI DISMISSED!!!
