OUTCOME: Not Guilty/Full Acquittal

The client was charged in Little Rock District Court with DWI First Offense and Careless and Prohibited Driving arising from the same traffic stop.

The defense maintained a not-guilty plea on the DWI charge and proceeded to contest the State's evidence. Why This Result Matters A DWI conviction in Arkansas can result in license consequences, fines, increased insurance costs, mandatory education programs, and a permanent criminal record. By successfully obtaining dismissal of the DWI charge at trial, the defense prevented a DWI conviction from being entered against the client. While the traffic citation was resolved separately, the more serious intoxicated-driving allegation resulted in a complete defense victory.
