Oct 31, 2024	Case: 24-CM-006218	Judge Farr
Facts:	The defendant was stopped for driving with no lights after dark. Officers observed an odor of alcohol, bloodshot/watery eyes, and slurred speech. He also had a wristband on from a bar. The defendant performed poorly on field sobriety tests such as the HGN (eye test), walk and turn, and one leg stand. While being arrested for DUI, he pulled way, defied orders to stop moving his arms and would not allow the officers to place him in the back of patrol car. He was also charged with resisting an officer without violence. He later refused a breath test.
Defense:	After several discussions with the State about the defendant and the evidence, the State Dropped the DUI and Dismissed the Resisting charge.
Result:	The State dropped the DUI.

Oct 31, 2024	Case: 24-CT-007531	Judge Taylor
Facts:	The defendant was stopped for driving westbound in the eastbound lanes of travel on the rim of his passenger tire. The officer noticed an odor of alcohol, glassy eyes, and slurred speech. He also had a flushed face, appeared unsteady, and had a wristband on from a bar. He performed poorly on roadside tests and was arrested for DUI. He later blew a .200 and .189 in the breath machine.
Defense:	After conversations with the State regarding the evidence and the defendant, the State Dropped the DUI.
Result:	The State dropped the DUI.

Oct 31, 2024	Case: 24-CT-007545	Judge Taylor
Facts:	The defendant crashed his car into a tree. Officers observed an odor of alcohol, glassy/watery eyes, slow/slurred speech, and lethargic movements. He also appeared unsteady. He then performed the HGN (eye test), walk and turn, and one leg stand exercises. He was arrested for DUI and later blew a .101 and .100 in the breath machine.
Defense:	On tape, the defendant was covered in blood on his face and clothes. We pointed out to the State that any impairment such as slurred speech, unsteadiness, and lethargic movements could have just as easily been attributed to the crash versus alcohol. Also, the fact the officer did not administer any nonphysical tests was ridiculous as the defendant was covered in blood. The State agreed and Dropped the DUI.
Result:	The State dropped the DUI.
