Mike Brandt’s client was charged with Gross Misdemeanor Third Degree DWI following an incident where he blew a stop sign and a red light before passing an officer at a high rate of speed. In preparing the case, Mike encouraged his client to take proactive steps to address any potential chemical use concerns the court may have.
Because Mike’s client had proactively done several things at Mike’s direction, the prosecutor offered to dismiss the Gross Misdemeanor Third Degree DWI charge in exchange for a guilty plea to a lesser charge of Misdemeanor Fourth Degree DWI. Because of the way this case was resolved, Mike’s client was able to avoid serving any time in jail.
