Client’s driver’s license saved and OWI (Operating While Intoxicated) plead down to simple misdemeanor public intoxication for a fine only!

At hearing with the IDOT, successfully argued that the officer violated my client’s 804.20 rights, which got the driver’s license revocation rescinded.

Next, after filing a motion to suppress in the Operating While Under the Influence criminal case, the judge agreed that my client’s 804.20 rights were violated and suppressed the implied consent breath test refusal. The State agreed to a win-win proposal to amend the charge to simple misdemeanor public intoxication for a minimum $105 fine only.
