OUI Case Against Local Store Owner Continued Without a Finding

The defendant owns a chain of novelty stores in the Merrimack Valley area. Nearly two years ago he was driving in a suburban Boston city when he got into a minor accident with another vehicle. After a brief exchange of information the driver of the other car called the police. Officers arrived and found our client in the passenger seat of his vehicle with keys in the ignition and the engine running. There was vomit on the steering wheel and passenger seat. The officers spoke with our client who was incoherent, stumbling and unable to stand up for any length of time. The officers detected a strong odor of alcohol on his breath. He was arrested and charged with OUI under G.L. c. 90 section 24. He retained our office. Today he resolved the case with a continuance without a finding (CWOF) and the 24D standard first offender program. If he successfully completes his probation the case will be dismissed.
