A paper alr case. The officer...I had a similar one. A paper alr case. The officer responding to report of an accident does not even confirm that there was an accident smells alcohol gets admission of two drinks from a 200 lb man asks for sft's which were refused. He is "placed in custody" and then affidavits are taken from "victims" of the accident and still no evidence in the report that my client made contact with their vehicle. ALR judge assumed an accident and found PC because of admission of two drinks, smell of alcohol and thick tongued speech. No one even put him behind the wheel in the report before the judge. This two bite civil/criminal approach is untenable crap. I win about 40% of my ALR cases, but some of these judges simply refuse to acknowledge the case law you put in front of them and rubber stamp these suspensions.
