A Los Angeles DUI arrest can be a devastating event in a person's life. Not only are the court costs and possible fines staggering, a conviction can also end up on your criminal record for a long time. Plenty of times, Los Angeles DUI defendants are not aware of their rights and what they can do to ensure that they are given a fair trial with admissible evidence present at the time of the trial.
Recently, the Massachusetts Supreme Court solidified DUI defendant rights by requiring two breath samples be taken during the course of a DUI arrest. This ensures that the breath test machine is functioning correctly and only the lower reading is admissible in court. By law, the higher reading is inadmissible as the second test is put in place to make sure that the machine is functioning, not as a way to bring further evidence to the trial.
Like Massachusetts, California has several laws that protect DUI defendant rights, but many are unaware of them. An experienced and professional Los Angeles DUI defense attorney team is knowledgeable in these laws and can help defend your rights in court.
