Casey e was arrested for Physical Control after the arresting officer found him parked on the side of the freeway with his engine running. He failed field sobriety tests and a breath test revealed his blood alcohol was .24 – three times the legal limit.
Casey e’s record was spotless and he had faithfully served his community for twenty years as a law enforcement officer. A DUI conviction might have spelled the end of his illustrious career. During a hearing to determine whether or not Casey e’s license would be suspended, Casey got the arresting officer to admit under oath that Casey e was in fact “safely off the roadway” when he contacted him, providing a strong defense to his Physical Control charge in court.

Although the prosecutor could have proceeded with a DUI charge, Casey was able to point out challenges there as well, and negotiated a reduction to Negligent Driving 1, with no jail time and no additional license suspension – and most importantly, preserving Casey e’s law enforcement career.
