DUI Reduced to Dry Reckless — Withhold Achieved

Case Number: 2022CT003207A000WH
County: Polk

Client was arrested for DUI in Polk County after allegedly driving 100 mph and swerving, but he blew under the legal limit and his urine test was clean. Despite this, the State refused to drop the case. The attorney prepared for trial, prompting the State to offer a wet reckless — which we rejected because it would still count as an alcohol-related conviction. Through continued negotiation, the attorney secured a reduction to a dry reckless based solely on the driving behavior, along with a withhold of adjudication, meaning no criminal conviction.
