Resolution: Plea to careless driving as a misdemeanor. Client blew a .11 on a first-time DWI and had no legal defense. On top of that, the client had a wonderful job promotion opportunity to work for her company in Canada. A DWI would have prevented that from happening. Thankfully, the North Star team was able to secure a plea to an amended count of Careless Driving, which included no admission to facts relating to alcohol-use -- a must in order for the client to be able to enter Canada. Further, the sentence called for no community service, a minimal fine, and unsupervised probation. All in all, another great case result that saves the client and allows her to proceed with her future unscathed by this offense.
