Summary: My client was spotted earlier by a police officer as being intoxicated in public. My client was verbally warned not to drive. Apparently, my client decided to drive a short time later and was stopped and arrested for OUI. My client blew over the legal limit.
Outcome: I was able to negotiate a favorable outcome for my client which included a plea to Reckless Conduct, a fine of $700 and 48 hours in the Alternative Sentencing Program. In return the OUI charge against my client was dismissed. My client served ZERO driving suspension time.
