My client ran a red light, had slurred speech, was unsteady on her feet, admitted to drinking, and failed all the field sobriety tests. I scheduled a motion to suppress hearing but the DA failed to summons the arresting trooper. When the case was called, I made a motion to dismiss for failure to prosecute. The judge dismissed the OUI charge. No conviction, no license loss, no probation. no 16 weeks of alcohol classes and saved her about $3000 in various court fees. |
