Joe's client was driving on a suspended license when he was pulled over making an illegal turn on red. When a breath test indicated a BAC of 0.10, Joe's client was arrested. He was charged with both OWI and Driving While License Suspended (DWLS), and he was also ticketed for the illegal turn.

Although the situation looked grim for Joe's client, Joe's investigation was able to uncover that his client suffered from a particular medical condition. This medical condition had the potential to affect the client's performance on the field sobriety tests and the BAC indicated by the breath test.

Armed with this information, Joe was able to win a motion to dismiss the DUI charge before the trial began. Further negotiations with the prosecutor resulted in the DWLS charge being reduced to "no operator's permit on person".
