State vs. R.P. - DWI DISMISSED
Aug 12, 2014OUTCOME: CASE DISMISSED
R.P. was driving late one night when he was allegedly clocked driving twenty miles per hour over the speed limit. The police officer pulled over R.P., who submitted to standardized field sobriety ... tests. R.P. allegedly performed poorly on the field sobriety tests and was arrested for for Driving While Intoxicated (“DWI”). Once at the police station, R.P. submitted to a breath sample, which registered nearly three times the legal limit. R.P.’s case was accepted by the district attorney, and R.P. was charged with DWI with BAC > .15, which is a Class A Misdemeanor in Texas, bearing punishment of up to a year in the county jail and up to a $4,000 fine. R.P. bonded out and immediately called our office for representation. We were hired on the case and immediately got to work. We began poking holes in the state’s DWI case. Through our aggressive representation of R.P., we were successful in having all charges dismissed. R.P. served no jail time, does not have a DWI conviction, his driver’s license will NOT be suspended as a result of the DWI case, he did no probation, and he did no community service. Additionally, R.P. never had to sit for a trial. http://www.galvestonjustice.com/blog/single-entry/galveston-county-dui-dwi-lawyer-case-result-all-charges-dropped
