An elementary school teacher was involved in a minor fender bender in a parking lot. Her breath test registered at a .09 but she had a history of acid reflux. Rather than go through a long battle in a trial, the prosecution was persuaded to reduce the charge to reckless driving. She was able to maintain her position as a teacher, a job she really loves.

After drinking two glasses of wine earlier, our client helped his daughter move items on a hot day. He then stopped at a 7-11, drank a 22 oz. beer quickly, and was pulled over shortly after, failing sobriety tests and blowing a .09. We had a toxicologist testify that the BAC at the station would be higher than during driving due to the recent beer. Despite the judge's tough stance on DUIs, she found him NOT GUILTY.

A 68-year-old with acid reflux was arrested with a BAC of .13. After a seven-hour trial featuring expert testimony, the judge found him Not Guilty. The judge ruled the sobriety tests invalid due to improper administration and the client's age. Additionally, the judge noted the lack of independent scientific studies proving the EC/IR II breath test machine's effectiveness against mouth alcohol.

My client was stopped at a legal checkpoint and arrested despite not appearing drunk. We brought several witnesses to testify about his day. The prosecutor claimed he was a career drunk who could handle his liquor. I presented a Radio Frequency Interference defense, which the Judge cut short. Ultimately, the Judge found the facts inconsistent with a .21 BAC result and suggested radio frequency interference might have played a role, then pronounced my client "NOT GUILTY."
