Breathalyzer test results explained

Massachusetts DUI cases with breathalyzer test results can still be won and Attorney DelSignore has won numerous DUI cases despite failed breathalyzer test results. The reason this is the case is that breathalyzer test results are not easy for the Commonwealth to admit into evidence. With Attorney DelSignore’s command of the science behind breathalyzer test results and understanding of the legal requirements for the admissibility of breath test evidence, he has successfully excluded breathalyzer evidence in numerous cases.

Attorney DelSignore has had breathalyzer test results of .15 excluded from evidence in a 4th Offense DUI charge and won the case at trial with a not guilty verdict. Under Massachusetts OUI law, the police must conduct a 15 minute observation period to have breathalyzer test results admitted into evidence. A hearing was conducted where it was shown that this observation period was not properly performed.

In another case, Attorney DelSignore had the entire case dismissed as a result of the police not advising the defendant of his right to an independent medical exam.

Breath test evidence can be challenged based on the Commonwealth not having the proper documentation to show that the machine is reliable, that the machine was not properly maintained or stored in a location free of radio frequency interference or other factors that could compromise the test results.

Breathalyzer evidence is one piece of evidence; if you failed a breathalyzer test, call Boston DUI Attorney Michael DelSignore to discuss your case and he can explain the process and the challenges to the test results that may result in an acquittal on your drunk driving charge.
