OUI Charge Against Electrician to be Dismissed After Continuance Without a Finding

Our client is an electrician working on both residential and commercial jobs throughout the greater Boston area.  several months ago he and some friends from work stopped at a bar after a long day on a large project. Several hours later when our client was driving away a police officer observed him operating very erratically, nearly striking cars in the opposite lane of travel. A motor vehicle stop was effectuated. Our client submitted to field sobriety test. These were captured on body worn cameras. Our client then submitted to a breathalyzer test where he blew over three times the legal limit. He was charged with OUI in violation of G.L. c. 90 section 24. Our office was hired to represent him. Notwithstanding the severity of the allegations we were able to convince a judge to continue the case without a finding and impose the typical first offender 24D program.
