Results-DWI/DUI

Charge:

3rd Degree Driving Under the Influence

Result:

All charges dismissed.

Story:

This case was another example of a police officer following a person just leaving a bar and not following protocol before making an arrest.  The officer alleged that the Client made a “late signal lane change” and based a traffic stop solely on that reason after following our Client for several miles.  Naros Law analyzed the squad video in detail down to the millisecond and found that the Client had appropriately signaled their lane change contrary to the officer’s statement.  The Judge agreed and dismissed all charges.

Charge:

3rd Degree Driving Under the Influence (Refusal to Test), 4th Degree Driving Under the Influence, Carrying a Pistol While Under the Influence.

Result:

Negotiated plea agreement – Client pled guilty to Carrying a Pistol While Under the Influence, all other charges were dismissed.

Story:

This case was recharged from the circumstances surrounding the above case where our Client was accused of pointing a gun at another person in an apartment building hallway.  Police found our Client sitting in his vehicle in the underground garage.  Prosecutors did not have evidence that the alleged assault occurred, and so recharged this case pursuing the Driving Under the Influence charges.  Naros Law was able to convince the Prosecutor that after the previous case was dismissed, they did not have enough evidence to pursue a case of Driving Under the Influence.  The Prosecutor agreed to drop the DWI charges and our client accepted a plea to Carrying a Pistol Under the Influence, a misdemeanor.

Charge:

Criminal Vehicular Operation and Driving Under the Influence

Result:

Negotiated plea agreement – Client pled guilty to Driving Under the Influence, all other charges, including Criminal Vehicular Operation, were dismissed.

Story:

Our Client was involved in a collision with another vehicle in which it was found that the Client had a blood alcohol content above the legal limit.  Naros Law was able to find the Client the treatment they needed to move their life forward in a positive direction, giving them the tools they needed to succeed.  Because there were no injuries in the crash, and because of our Client’s commitment to sobriety, the Judge and Prosecutor agreed that the best outcome for all parties was a plea to Driving Under the Influence, and dismissing the charge of Criminal Vehicular Operation.  While this event could have had a tragic outcome for an innocent person, it also allowed our Client a new lease on life, a commitment to sobriety that continues to this day, and a second chance.

Charge:

Driving Under the Influence – Refusal to Test

Result:

All charges dismissed.

Story:

Our Client had lunch at a bar and upon leaving was followed by a police officer for several miles.  The officer stopped the Client’s vehicle, not because of any driving conduct which warranted a stop, but only because he suspected the Client of having been drinking at the bar.  Our Client refused the officer’s request for him to take a blood alcohol test.  The officer did not have reasonable suspicion to pull over our Client, and Naros Law filed a Motion to Suppress all evidence of the traffic stop.  The Judge agreed, and all charges were dismissed.  Naros Law later had all records related to the arrest expunged, keeping the Client’s record clear of this unfortunate incident.
