DUI Charges Dismissed in Rhode Island District Court

Rhode Island DUI charges pending against a Client were dismissed today in the Fourth Division District Court in Wakefield, Rhode Island.  The charge, DUI with blood alcohol content between 0.10 and 0.15, was completely dismissed after the Defense successfully argued that the breath test was improperly administered.  Utilizing video footage obtained from the police department of the events that took place at the police station prior to the administration of the Intoxilyzer 5000, the Defense was able to show that the arresting officer failed to comply with the Department of Health Rules and Regulations pertaining to the administration of the Intoxilyzer 5000 chemical breath test.  As a result, the State determined that they had insufficient evidence with which to proceed against the Client and dismissed the Rhode Island DUI charge outright.

Marin, Esquire, Inc., we have successfully argued in prior cases that the Intoxilyzer 5000 was improperly administered.  Proper administration of a chemical breath test, like most defenses in Rhode Island DUI cases, require specialized knowledge and experience to recognize.  Attorney Marin has handled a multitude of Rhode Island DUI cases, and we have probably seen a DUI case just like yours.  Our specialized knowledge and experience can be put to work for you to get you the absolute best result possible, and to potentially defeat your Rhode Island DUI case.
