DUI Reduced to "Dry Reckless" in Santa Clara County

The Santa Clara County District Attorney's Office is known for its "get tough" policy of prosecuting regular citizens for driving under the influence. Despite this fact, the Law Office of Robert Tayac was able to obtain a victory this Monday in the Santa Clara Superior Court on the behalf of their client, "S.M," who was arrested in January 2008 by the Palo Alto Police Department. While S.M.'s breath alcohol test indicated a blood alcohol content of .07 percent (the legal limit in California is .08 percent), the Palo Alto District Attorney's office prosecuted S.M. for violation of Vehicle Code section 23152(a), driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs. Nonetheless, Attorney Robert Tayac was able to negotiate a settlement to reduce the charge to reckless driving, pursuant to section 23103.5 of the Vehicle Code. As such, all driving under the influence charges were dropped against S.M.
