August 16th 2017
1st OFFENSE OUI- Liquor or .08%
Client, a young college graduate, was driving and struck a parked car. He was eventually apprehended and charged with a first offense OUI. Defense made several challenges to admission of evidence of the Commonwealth via motion to suppress. Although the court denied the motion, the court authored a well written and detailed 9-page decision for their rationale and basis. The client agreed to a plea that would place him on probation for one year—with the agreement that the charge would be dismissed from his record at the end of that calendar year.
RESULT: First Offense OUI DISMISSED AFTER ONE YEAR PROBATION AND PROGRAM.
