Client faced a 2nd offense DUI.
When having difficulty sleeping, client went out spotlighting for deer when he was stopped by the police.
He was stopped for crossing lane lines.
Thankfully, we were able to get involved with the case and obtained a copy of the police officer's dash camera video.
The video did not show that our client's driving was anything more than minimal deviations from his lane of travel.
We filed a motion to suppress evidence arguing that the officer did not have either reasonable suspicion or probable cause to stop our clients truck and the trial court granted it.
