    1. Eastern Shore Legal: 1. Was this an illegal traffic stop? State v. Williams, 401 Md. 676, 687 (Md. 2007), the Court reaffirmed the law in Maryland that Òthe appropriate minimum standard that will justify a traffic stop is Òreasonable articulable suspicion.Ó Ò[A] traffic stop of a motorist is a seizure which implicates the Fourth Amendment, even temporary or limited restraints on the liberty of a person during a traffic stop may not be constitutionally permissible if, under all of the circumstances, the traffic stop was unreasonable. Rowe v. State, 363 Md. 424, 432-433 (Md. 2001); See also Edwards v. State, 143 Md. App 155 (2002). 2. Did the police officer violate my clientÕs Constitutional Rights? Did the police have probable cause to search my clientÕs vehicle? The rule of probable cause is a non-technical conception of a reasonable ground for belief of guilt, requiring less evidence for such belief than would justify conviction, but more evidence than that which would arouse a mere suspicion. Mobley v. State, 270 Md. 76, 81 (Md. 1973). 3. Was my clientÕs car searched pursuant to the guarantees provided in the Fourth Amendment? If the search of my clientÕs vehicle was unconstitutional Ð a Motion to Suppress will be drafted and filed Ð a hearing will be requested Ð Mr. Walter will argue that any and all evidence obtained by the police should be suppressed and the case should be dismissed because the evidence was Òfruit of the poisonous tree.Ó The "fruit of the poisonous tree" doctrine holds that when the Constitution has been violated in obtaining evidence, such tainted evidence shall not only not be used directly but shall not be used at all. It prohibits not only the direct use of the tainted evidence but also its derivative use. The "fruit of the poisonous tree" doctrine would go further and also bar such derivative uses of such evidence as the exploitation of the knowledge gained so as to develop further leads; or, of pertinence here, the use of such tainted evidence to establish probable cause for the issuance of a subsequent warrant.

    2. Steven Friend: It is NOT against the law in Maryland to drive after having consumed alcohol. It IS against the law to drive after consuming enough alcohol to impair your driving abilities, or in legal terminology, "drinking to the extent of probably affecting one's judgement and discretion or probably affecting one's nervous system to the extent that there is a failure of normal coordination. It is also against the law to consume alcoholic beverages while driving. Therefore, avoid having open alcohol containers in your vehicle while you are driving and refrain from driving after you have drank enough to affect your judgement, coordination, discretion or reflexes.

21. Edgewood
    1. Abercrombie Law Office: The U.S. Supreme Court has generally interpreted the Fourth Amendment prohibition against "unreasonable searches and seizures" to impose a warrant requirement upon police officers who wish to perform a valid search or arrest. However, the Court has carved out some exceptions to the warrant requirement, which make certain "seizures" constitutionally permissible in the absence of a warrant.

    1. Nick Kourtesis: In today's society, a vehicle is a necessity. Our goal is to protect your right to own and operate a vehicle. The first line of defense is to challenge the reason that you were stopped. There are bad stops! There are many things that you need to do before appearing in front of a judge. We know what these things are and we strongly urge you to move quickly and contact my firm if you have been arrested or cited for a traffic offense. If it is your first arrest, the goal is make sure that you can continue driving. For second offenses, the goal is often to keep you out of jail and able to continue providing for your family. Maryland DUI/DWI Under Maryland law, you may be charged with either of the following: * Driving Under the Influence or Driving While Intoxicated (DUI or DWI): A more severe criminal charge that could result in up to three years in jail for subsequent offenders and a suspension or revocation of your driving privileges * Driving While Impaired: A lesser offense that may still result in a revoked or suspended driver's license, jail time, heavy fine, inpatient treatment and extensive probation A DUI/DWI arrest involves both criminal and civil consequences. The criminal consequences you face depend upon your prior record, the seriousness of the offense, and your blood alcohol content (BAC). Conversely, the civil consequences you face involve an administrative hearing before the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA) which will determine the fate of your driving privileges.

49. Old Bridge
    1. Goldstein & Bachman:

       As in all states, in New Jersey it is a crime to operate a vehicle while impaired by the effects of alcohol or drugs. The offense may be called driving under the influence (DUI) or driving while intoxicated (DWI). Whatever the term, New Jersey DUI / DWI laws make it illegal for a person to operate a car, truck, motorcycle, or commercial vehicle if:

       1. The driver's ability to safely operate the vehicle is impaired by the effects of alcohol
       2. The driver is intoxicated at a level above established DUI standards, such as blood-alcohol concentration (BAC). In New Jersey, this level is defined as a BAC of .10%.

       New Jersey has serious drunk driving penalties. If you are found guilty on DUI charges, you will lose all driving privileges for a minimum of six months and may face fines of up to $700. In addition, you will be faced with increased automobile insurance rates and insurance surcharges to the state.

    1. Shprukhman, Edvard: Criminal Defense
    2. Jay Liner: Traffic violations can have serious criminal consequences, particularly when a driver is accused of driving under the influence. A conviction on DUI/DWI charges may result in fines, the revocation or suspension of your driver's license, and possible jail time. In addition, your insurance company may increase your rates to an unmanageable level. In defending against an impaired driving charge, you have many rights as a criminal defendant, including the right to cross-examine the witnesses against you, even if they are police officers. An experienced criminal defense attorney can make all the difference in such a difficult case.

    3. Christopher Flohr: If the government, whether State or Federal, is tying to convict you of a crime, you need to aggressively defend against such charges. A criminal conviction will have long lasting consequences including fines, court costs, and jail or prison time. You need an attorney with knowledge and experience in criminal defense.

    1. Regis Johnston: Drunk-driving charges can have serious immediate and long-term consequences. You could immediately face: ¥ Suspension of your driver's license ¥ Hundreds of dollars of fines ¥ Driving school ¥ Costs to get your license back ¥ A black mark on your driving record ¥ Astronomical insurance rates, or no ability to get insurance at all Drunk-driving charges stay on your driving record for lifeÑand they will remain on your record if you move to another state. For every additional DUI / DWI charge you haveÑeven if your last charge was 15 years agoÑyou will be facing: ¥ Increasingly severe fines and penalties ¥ Jail time that increases with each offense ¥ Longer suspension or absolute revocation of your driver's license DUI is one of the most serious criminal charges that an average person can face. It is important to challenge every drunk-driving charge while you can. Once it is on your record, you will not be able to get it removed.
60. Tacoma Park
    1. Henry, Jeffrey: There are two aspects to every DUI case in Maryland. You will have to answer to the court and the MVA. MVA: They will try to suspend your license, and the length of suspension will vary depending on if you took a breath test and the level of alcohol found. There are different options possible to avoid suspension or to have a modified suspension to allow you to keep driving. Action must be taken within 10 days or so after being charged in order to take advantage of some of these options. COURT: If this is your first offense, the odds are you arenÕt going to jail even if they can prove the charges. The first thing we do is make sure they can prove the charges. If so, we then give you advice on what you can do to minimize the consequences. Most times you will be placed on supervised probation and be required to attend an alcohol education or treatment program as part of your probation. You can improve your sentence by doing this prior to court, and we can help you find a program. If this isnÕt your first offense, jail is a real possibility, and this makes a thorough analysis of the case and possible defenses even more crucial, and the more time we have to work on your case, we are more able to explore all the options available including ways to avoid jail, like home detention or work release Either way it is crucial to get some advice right away!
    2. Malik, Ricky: Immigration and Criminal Charges If you are an immigrant to the United States and have been charged with a crime, it is extremely important to hire an attorney who knows both criminal and immigration law. Criminal charges can have a detrimental effect your immigration status. You could be deported.

    1. Kotlarski, Mark: Unfortunately, meaningful plea bargains are rarely available in DUI/DWI cases and other driving infractions.
    2. Jacobs, Neil: When a defendant is convicted of a criminal offense, the defendant is usually required to pay fines and costs as part of his or her sentence. If the defendant has only been ordered to pay fines and costs, the defendant will be discharged from a judgment requiring fines and costs upon full payment of the fines and costs to the proper authorities.
