Grand Island, FL DUI Law Firms & Lawyers

In SC, if you are referring to refusal to submit to breath and/or bodily fluid testing and the charge is plain DUI, then yes, the State can allege that you refused to submit to testing under certain conditions. These conditions are very highly contested in the legal arena right now and there are technical arguments in regards to a lot of them right now. You should consult in person with an attorney as soon as possible regarding these matters. I do hereby clearly advise against any reliance on the information as advice or application of it to a specific situation without a more thorough consultation with counsel.

You have raised a lot of issues.  The stop may be bad, the search may be bad, the arrest after passing exercises should be looked at closely.   You should contact an experienced criiminal and DUI attorney.  It sounds like your were arrested for either DUI, possession, or reckless driving or all 3.   You should not try to do this alone.  My advice would be to get an attorney in or near the county where this occurred or get an attorney where you live to coordinate this.  

It sounds like this matter is in Eaton County since they are known for their Fast Track Programs for DUIs . I would strongly suggest retaining counsel and then taking steps as soon as possible to get this matter taken care of which will include turning yourself in. It only gets worse the longer you wait. Be prepared for some jail time as that is probably a likelihood at this point, but at least you will have the relief of knowing the matter is resolved and you can move on with your life without constant fear of running into the police. Good luck.
