Wakefield, MA Criminal Defense Attorney

July 28th 2008
Salem District Court
OUI - Liquor or .08% Chapter 90 Section 24(1) (a) (1)
Client was charged with leaving the scene of an accident and operating under the influence of alcohol. According to the police client was so severely intoxicated that he could barely stand upright and presented slurred speech as well as other factors that did not help the client's case. However, a significant investigation into the facts and issues combined with an extensive negotiation with the district attorney resulted in them simply dismissed the leaving the scene charge outright and allowing the lowest fines and fee for the OUI charge with a stipulation that the charge is dismissed upon completion of probation for one year.
RESULT: Leaving the Scene DISMISSED and OUI charge probation with DISMISSAL upon completion of Probation.
