Hays County, County Court at Law #2

Allegations

Officers found the client asleep in a fast food drive-thru with the vehicle in park. After roadside tests, they were arrested and later provided two breath samples over .15. We obtained the videos and breath records, noted the limited driving evidence, and compiled strong mitigation including early completion of alcohol education and a victim impact panel, plus a clean history. We pressed these points with the prosecutor and negotiated a reduction to a standard DWI with deferred probation.
