City of Dearborn v. MY

OUTCOME: Dismissal

Client was driving. He refused to blow into the datamaster and the police sergeant obtained a search warrant for his blood, which showed a BAC of 0.14. Cllient was initially represented by another at ... torney and plead guilty to impaired driving, which led to an automatic revocation of his Concealed Pistol License. After hiring our firm, we successfully withdrew his guilty plea. We then obtained video evidence from the sergeant's scout car that clearly showed he lied in the sworn affidavit he submitted to obtain a search warrant for blood. Rather than risk their sergeant commit perjury, the city attorney dismissed the case just prior to the hearing on our motion to dismiss. Since this client had no other criminal history, the judge ordered that the Dearborn Police Department destroy this client's fingerprints and arrest record from their database. The Wayne County Gun Board reissued his Concealed Pistol License.
