A prosecutor in Hennepin, County Minnesota dismissed yesterday all charges against a man who had been charged with gross-misdemeanor criminal charges. The man’s attorney, Charles Ramsay of Roseville, Minnesota, confirmed the dismissals.
Ramsay had challenged the drunk driving charges based on a number of constitutional violations, including, that the police coerced his client to take the Intoxilyzer 5000 under the implied consent law. “The police told my client to ‘consent’ to a breath test or go to jail. That violates the fourth and fifth amendments of the US Constitution.” The maximum penalty carried one year in jail and a $3,000 fine. If you’ve been charged with a DWI or DUI in Minnesota, call Charles Ramsay to defend you. Don’t wait. You risk losing valuable rights if you wait 30 days after your arrest.
