Tennessee Dui 2nd offense reduced and owner Dui case prosecution retired.
The defendant was indicted under Tennessee Dui law by the grand jury for a 2nd offense dui. The defendant's only offer in general sessions court was to plead guilty to a 2nd offense and serve 45 days. The D.A. stated that "it would not get any better in criminal court."
After filing a motion for discovery and obtaining a copy of the arrest video, Mr. Martin convinced the state to reduce the charge to a first offense dui. This plea agreement was reached, in part, by Mr. Martin pointing out the weaknesses of the State's case. Case No. 06-050. |
