Case Name: People v. T.K.
Alleged BAC: 0.09 Breath + Speed Enhancement
Disposition Date: May, 2024
Disposition: DUI dismissed: 湿漉漉的鲁莽 plea

 

Client was spotted going 85 – 90 mph on a section of PCH with a speed limit of 35 mph. After being pulled over, he blew a 0.09% BAC and was later charged with DUI plus speed enhancement.

 

As the Chief Technology Officer of an International Robotics company, client was in the USA on a work Visa. He was potentially facing a minimum of 60 days in jail (due to the speed enhancement), which would have gotten him terminated from his employment. Even if he managed to keep his job, a DUI conviction alone could also have gotten his Visa revoked.

 

Faced with what appeared to be the end of his world in the United States, he reached out to the Law Office of Jeff Yeh for help. By presenting a mitigation packet to the District Attorney’s Office outlining the client’s employment / immigration situation, Attorney Jeff Yeh was able to convince the prosecutor to drop all DUI charges and even the speed enhancement.

 

The client plead to a Wet Reckless, which is often treated as a simple Reckless Driving by the Feds. Put on probation for only 1 year, client will be able to expunge the Wet Reckless before even his current work Visa will expire, ensuring a clean record at the time of his renewal.

 

 

But there’s more. As the cherry on top of the cake, Mr. Yeh also won the client’s DMV Hearing, securing a Set Aside that guarantees that even his driving record is devoid of anything resembling a DUI (a big plus if he ever decides to visit Canada)!
