[DUI Not Guilty] DUI charge dismissed with prejudice in DUI case

2026-02-05

The client was breathalyzed after arriving at an acquaintance's home, but claimed he had not been drinking when he drove the vehicle. There was no CCTV at the scene, and witnesses stated that the client did not have time to consume alcohol after driving, which worked against him. Tong highlighted the procedural shortcomings of the breath test, reconstructed the time of the client's consumption of alcohol and the circumstances of the scene in detail, and continued to argue the deficiencies of the police investigation, noting that the police officers did not properly verify the client's excuses at the time of the breath test. As a result, the court found that there was insufficient direct evidence to support the DUI charge and dismissed the case.
