REDUCED/NOT CHARGED | FELONY AGGRAVATED DUI (.267 BAC with child in car) REDUCED to a misdemeanor DUI with 1 day in jail/ASSAULT NOT CHARGED – State v. Mr. C. (DMC No. 10795) (Maricopa County Superior Court CR2012-10795): Mr. C. had been having problems with high school kids parking their cars and drinking and partying at the bottom of his drive way which overlooked the City from a mountain view. When returning from dinner with his wife and children in the car, he arrived at his driveway and got into a physical altercation with one of the teenagers. After a DUI investigation ensued, he provided a blood sample of .237 BAC. We were able to convince the prosecutor to not charge him with the assault on a juvenile. However, he was charged with AGGRAVATED DUI with child in car and faced up to 2 years in prison. We were able to get the charge reduced down to a misdemeanor REGULAR DUI with only 1 day in jail (versus the SUPER EXTREME DUI penalty of 45 days in jail). Mr. C. has no felony on his record.
