Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol (DUI) – License Suspension Removed

My client was observed by the Chicago Police not using his turn signal. When they pulled him over they observed bloodshot eyes, mumbled/slurred speech and an odor of alcohol on his breath. My client failed all of the field sobriety tests. The officers arrested my client and took him back to the Chicago Police Department for a breathalyzer. My client informed the officers that “I’ll blow over” and then refused to blow. The secretary of state was going to suspend my clients license for one (1) year because he refused to blow. We set the case down for hearing on the issue of “no probable cause” to believe he was under the influence of alcohol. Because the State of Illinois took too long to have a hearing, I argued that his license suspension should be removed. The judge agreed and removed the one (1) year suspension!
