The police received a call about an individual who had fallen asleep in his vehicle in a state of inebriation. They went there and arrested our client for driving under the influence. More specifically, he was charged with care and control of a vehicle while his faculties were impaired by alcohol under section 253 Criminal code. A hundred per cent of the defendant’s job is spent driving,
so he absolutely had to avoid being convicted. He hired our criminal lawyers to help him get out of this jackpot.
After Mr Cormier analysed the client’s version of the facts, he determined the best strategy would be to negotiate with the Prosecutor. Given the defence presented by the client (a defence of ‘‘definite plan’’), the Prosecutor agreed to withdraw the charges once the client made a charity donation.
Not all clients charged with care and control can be acquitted. See notice.
