OUI 1st Offense
Resisting Arrest
Refuse to Produce License
A peaceful and hardworking (then) young man found in the driver’s seat of a parked vehicle at a Home Depot Parking lot. Police arrived at the location and shined their flashlights in the vehicle which startled client. When client was startled he got out of the vehicle which the officer described as charging toward the officer. Client did not speak English at the time and was intoxicated. Police did arrest client at the scene and charged him with operating under the influence of alcohol, resisting arrest and finally refusing to show his driver’s license. Client went to court, but soon after defaulted and a warrant for his arrest was open for over 20 years. Now, he removed the warrant and we prepared for trial. Fortunately, the case was so old and the officers that arrested them had retired. The case was set for trial and at trial the Commonwealth could not prove their case with no arresting officer and the case was dismissed.
RESULT: OUI, Resisting Arrest and False ID all Dismissed at Trial.
