Charges: 3rd Degree DWI – Gross Misdemeanor
Resolution:
Plea to a 4th Degree DWI – Misdemeanor. What makes this result so incredible is that the incident involved a serious accident and a breath alcohol reading more than twice the legal limit. And on top of getting a misdemeanor, the client received probation to the court, with no further custody time or community service to complete and the minimum fine of $300. In serious accident DWI cases, cities are want to give such a great outcome. But, with a smart strategy and a proactive and remorseful client, the City Attorney knew this was a client deserving of this incredible outcome.
