Can my son get his DUI dismissed since he didn't take the breath test?

Answered by attorney Russell S Pietryga (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Pietryga Law Office
Your son has a great case to defend. However, the breath test is just one piece of evidence. Usually, there is the following evidence in most DUI cases: driving patter; initial contact; field sobriety tests; preliminary breath tests; and finally breath test. So, as you can see, the case can still go forward, but the prosecutor is missing a lot of critical evidence to get a conviction. Because your son is on leave from the military, it can complicate it even further. Your son does not need a conviction on his record. This can effect his military career. For instance, it could prevent him from getting a security clearance. Additionally, he is going to have to deal with this while not being present, since he will not be here tell its conclusion. Lastly, your son needs to request a DMV hearing within 10 days of his arrest. If he loses his license, that will effect his base privileges.
