Chemical testing consequences
Drivers in Utah are subject to some of the toughest DUI laws in the nation. Under Utah's implied consent laws, if you have a driver's license, police officers can ask you to take a blood, breath or urine test if they have probable cause to believe you are under the influence of alcohol or drugs. If you refuse to take the test, it can result in your license being suspended for 18 months and the placement of an ignition interlock device in your vehicle for up to three years. This can have serious consequences for your career, your employment options and your family.
Get your test results thrown out of court
Even when you believe that taking a chemical test will guarantee a DUI conviction, there are defenses available to you that can get your case dismissed. Our Provo criminal law firm knows that DUI chemical tests are not 100 percent reliable, and often files motions to suppress evidence in order to get clients' test results thrown out. At a suppression hearing, Attorney Harold Stone shows judges that chemical testing devices are never 100 percent accurate, and are extremely prone to human, mechanical and technical error.
For breath tests, Attorney Harold Stone attacks the accuracy and calibration of Breathalyzer and Intoxilyzer machines to see whether your tests were performed properly. Mr. Stone makes sure that blood and urine tests were performed by authorized personnel and challenges whether the machines met the reliability standards necessary to produce a proper reading.
