Charge of OUI 2nd Offense Reduced to OUI 1st and Continued Without a Finding and Felony Charge of Intimidation of a Witness Dismissed

In August of 2024  after a night of drinking our client was in a car accident. He contacted the police and told them that his car had been stolen. The police responded to the scene of the accident and quickly realized that our client had not been truthful with them and that he was in fact the driver of the car. He was charged with OUI second offense, G.L. c. 90 section 24 and intimidation of a witness, G.L. c. 268 section 13B. Attorney Neyman was hired.  We were able to show that the first offense had actually been reduced to a crime that does not qualify as OUI in Massachusetts and therefore this was a first offense. We were able to then get the charge reduced to an OUI first offense and have it continued without a finding (CWOF).  We were also able to convince a compassionate and fair assistant district attorney to agree to dismiss the felony charge of intimidation of a witness. If our client successfully completes his probation the oui will be dismissed.
