Operating under the Influence of Alcohol or .08
Client was a Nepalese immigrant who was charged with Operating under the Influence of Alcohol. Whereas he was not yet a citizen, a guilty conviction or admission to sufficient facts could result serious immigration problems. The police report detailed the basis of the arrest which was he was in a school parking lot picking up his child when he was found slumped over the front wheel of his car—with the key in the ignition. A nip of alcohol was found in his pants with several empty nips and beers cans in and around him. The police and ambulance came and he was medically alright, but intoxicated. He went to the police station and blew nearly twice the legal limit. In the end, several items were brought before the jury for review including several witnesses from the government, and bodycam footage. The District Attorney presented the case very well, but the jury determined the evidence was insufficient and declared that he is not guilty.
Result: OUI or .08 Breath Test Reading Result in Acquittal.
