DMV HEARINGS

One of the standard penalties in Colorado DUI cases is a license revocation. But all DUI defendants have the right to a DMV administrative hearing where the defendants - or their attorneys – can try to convince the DMV hearing officer to let them keep their license. Ten effective defense strategies that could help win a DMV hearing are:

1. The police lacked reasonable suspicion to pull over the defendant.
2. The police lacked probable cause to make a DUI arrest.
3. The defendant was not the person driving the vehicle, and the police arrested the wrong person.
4. The defendant had a medical episode that mimicked intoxication. Examples include being in a diabetic coma or having a seizure.
5. The defendant had dental work such as a bridge that caused alcohol to pool, which caused the breathalyzer to return inaccurate BAC levels.
6. The defendant has a medical condition that caused falsely high breathalyzer results, such as acid reflux or GERD.
7. The police officer administered the field sobriety tests incorrectly.
8. The police officer did not observe the defendant for 15 minutes prior to administering the breathalyzer, or more than two hours elapsed between the arrest and taking the breath or blood test.
9. The breathalyzer was defective, it had not been calibrated recently, or the tech who last calibrated the breathalyzer let his or her certification lapse.
10. The blood test results became contaminated. COLORADO LEGAL DEFENSE GROUP
