I am honored to have recently addressed the R.I. District Court Prosecutors Association regarding the successful prosecution and defense of drunk driving (DUI, DWI, OUI) and refusal cases. Communities represented at this District Court Prosecutors Association meeting included, but were not limited to Barrington, Bristol, Burrillville, Cranston, East Greenwich, East Providence, Foster, Lincoln, Narragansett, North Kingstown, Pawtucket, Smithfield, South Kingstown and Tiverton.
The presentation included a review of the most recent case law in connection with drunk driving and refusal to submit to chemical test cases. These cases address the admissibility of chemical test results, the admissibility the standardized field sobriety tests, and the statutory and constitutional rights of a suspect to a timely release on bail.
The law of drunk driving and refusal to submit to a chemical test is an ever evolving area of the law. For help with a charge involving drunk driving,contact Robert H. Humphrey, Esq. at 401-816-5862 or e-mail him at rhh@rhumphreylaw.com.
