Client stopped for speeding on the Dulles Toll Road. Client allegedly failed several Field Sobriety Tests and submitted to a Preliminary Breath Test with the result of .19. He was then arrested for DUI. When he arrived at the police station, he submitted to the EC/IR2 with a result of .22.
Disposition:
The Blood Alcohol Content was reduced from .22 to .20 - saving Client 5 additional days in jail. The Reckless Driving charge was nolle prossed (dismissed) by the prosecutor. While Client had to serve 5 days in jail, we were able to convince the judge to allow him to report two weeks later to serve his jail sentence so he could take care of personal matters.
