Aug 24, 2012 Case: 2011-MM-018282AXXX Judge Bryson

The defendant was encountered/stopped by the police when he drove up right behind a police officer who was on another traffic stop. According to the officer, he screeched his tires within five feet behind his patrol car in violation of the move over law. The officer walked up to the car and motioned to the defendant to roll down his window. The defendant complied and rolled his window down and the officer went up to the car. The officer stated the defendant had some slurred speech and an odor of alcohol. The officer then took the defendant's keys and put them on the roof. The defendant was then detained until a DUI unit arrived. The defendant then performed the roadside tests on video. He failed them all as he looked highly intoxicated and then was arrested for DUI. After his arrest for DUI, he refused the breath test. He was also charged with a second refusal.

Parks & Braxton filed a pre-trial motion to suppress. In our motion, we alleged that the defendant could not move over as another car was blocking him from doing so and he did slow down in his lane of travel as required. We also alleged that the officer's motioning to the defendant to roll his window down and the taking of his keys were seizures. It should be noted that the officer was impeached at the motion hearing based on his pre-trial deposition whereby he previously stated that he never smelled any alcohol. The defendant also testified at the motion hearing in total contradiction to the officer. For example, he testified that he ended up farther back from the patrol car and never screeched his tires.

The Judge Granted the Motion to Suppress, threw out all the evidence, and the DUI and Refusal charges were Dismissed.
