DWI/DUI Case Results in Waller, TX

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Waller County, County Court at Law #2

Allegations

After a traffic stop for speeding, the client was arrested for DWI following field sobriety tests and a breath test that showed elevated results, including a reading over 0.15. We moved quickly, collected the client’s proactive DWI education certificate, and opened talks with the prosecutor. The state agreed to dismiss if a victim impact panel was completed. We coordinated the remaining requirement and delivered proof of completion. With mitigation in place and compliance verified, the prosecution dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Waller County, None

Allegations

After a 911 caller reported reckless driving, officers found our client already parked and standing outside the vehicle. No officer saw any driving, and the client declined field sobriety testing and breath. Hours later a blood draw was done under a warrant at the jail, where the nurse hesitated and noted lacking proper sterilization supplies while drawing an incomplete set of vials. We demanded preservation of video, dissected the reports, and prepared to suppress the blood and any driving proof. Confronted with these defects, the State dismissed the case.

Charge

DWI - First Offense

Location

Waller County, JP1

Allegations

The client was approached in a store parking lot while sitting in a parked vehicle, waiting for a ride. An open container was noted, and despite a recent knee injury the officer had the client attempt field sobriety tests, followed by a breath test. We focused the defense on the absence of any observed driving and whether the circumstances amounted to operating a vehicle at all. We also emphasized how the injury undermined the field tests and probed the basis for the initial contact. After sustained pressure in prefile negotiations, the State dismissed the case.
