THE ANATOMY OF A DUI CASE
How Can a DUI Case Be Won?
W i nning a DUI case begins with a When a person is arrested for a DUI and a police officer writes a report, that officer will include all of the “bad” information — the negative facts. They are going to write a report with the intent to get a conviction and convince a jury that the person was impaired for purposes of driving. DUI cases can be won when your attorney conducts a thorough investigation. They look at what is behind the police report and what is behind the police department’s investigation. It’s not enough to look at a blood test number and say, “It’s a 0.08, and 0.08 is the legal limit. So therefore, we are done.” We start with the police report and the knowledgeable and experienced DUI attorney. This is someone who defends DUI cases and understands the science and legal nuance behind DUIs. chemical test, and then break the case down, looking into all of the supporting documents and backup documentation.
We also look at the police officer’s training. How did they perform the field sobriety tests? If the officer did not give the field sobriety tests correctly or did not know how to grade or score a field sobriety test, then the tests are not trustworthy or reliable. Then there are scientific defenses your attorney can use to find possible errors in the chemical testing. There are factual defenses as to whether the person was or was not impaired for purposes of driving — or maybe they weren’t driving at all. There are also a number of legal defenses to DUIs, including a person’s constitutional rights and certain police procedures and policies that must be followed. There are legal requirements that must be met in order to justify a stop, a detention, and ultimately an arrest and a properly administered chemical test. If there are any issues with the legal aspects of the case, a DUI case may be won on legal or constitutional grounds. That said, while there may be several ways to beat a DUI, every case is different and every person is different. There are many factors to consider, and a win is not always assured.
