Legal Question in DUI Law in Oregon

Re: dui

You haven't asked a question. However, from the above, I would caution that, while a motion to suppress introduction of the UA test results might be granted, that, depending on the charge, doesn't necessarily preclude the prosecutor from proceeding with charges. As an example: let's assume this was a DUI and it was the BAC that was being introduced, but a motion to suppress was granted because the officer failed to follow procedures in some manner. That would prevent the prosecutor from proceeding on a DUI trial on grounds that your BAC was a .08 or over. However, the prosecutor could still attempt to show that, regardless of the absence of a BAC, there was evidence that your driving was appreciably affected by drugs/alcohol. For example, driving pattern (swerving all over the place), Field Sobriety Tests (couldn't perform a heel to toe, kept stumbling off the line), video (driver slurring speech, swaying side to side). Without knowing the particulars of your charge, I can only state that the suppression of a result, while harmful to the prosecutor's case, doesn't necessarily spell victory for the defendant.
