Middlesex County, Massachusetts

Commonwealth v. D.C. – Malden District Court (2011) – State Police OUI DUI DWI

Charge:  Operating under the Influence of Alcohol (2nd Offense)

Result:  Dismissed

Client was stopped at a State Police Sobriety Checkpoint.  Client was coming back from dinner with his wife for her birthday.  Client told the Trooper that he had consumed 2 glasses of wine over a 4 hour period.  The Trooper asked client to perform a  series of field sobriety tests.  After the completion of the tests client was placed under arrest.  Client elected to take a breath test with a reading of .10

Client had continuing issues with his gums and teeth prompting to wash his mouth on a consistent basis with mouthwash, which would have affected the breath test reading.  Also, client’s 2nd language was English but nevertheless performed reasonably well on the field tests, passing the walk and turn and doing well on the one leg stand but deemed a failure.
