Sample Michigan OWI Cases
Case #9 - MI OUIL/DLAD
People vs. BJW
DLAD - Port Huron
Hearing Officer Modelski
The client was arrested for OUIL and since he refused the breath test, was
also charged with an implied consent violation. After meeting with the
client we immediately filed an appeal of the implied consent matter, thereby
demanding a hearing with the Secretary of State's Driver License Appeal
Division. [Failure to file an appeal, or failing to win the appeal once
filed, results in an automatic six-month license revocation, and six points
are added to the violator's driving record].
On the hearing date we appeared with and on behalf of our client. The
arresting officer failed to appear. After waiting 20 minutes we requested a
dismissal. The Hearing Officer agreed and dismissed the implied consent
violation. As a result no license sanctions were imposed, and the client was
able to continue his driving otherwise unrestricted.
