criminal defense
a., charged with dWI (march 2021):
pretrial motion result: case dismissed.
In this case our client was charged with DWI following a single-car traffic accident in which the client’s car veered off the road and collided with a tree. After the client’s arrest, client was detained for an extended period of time and the defense was able to establish violations of the client’s rights under North Carolina law and the US Constitution. The Court dismissed the charge as a result of those violations.
r., charged with DWI (august 2020):
trial outcome: not guilty all counts.
In this case Mr. Hiltzheimer’s client was charged with Driving While Impaired and Failure to Maintain Lane Control following a motorcycle accident. The client was found in a ditch under the bike with serious injuries, and blood analysis revealed a BAC of .14. Following a technical challenge to the state’s evidence regarding the timing of the accident, which was never established, the court found that the BAC was not proven to be within a “relevant time after the driving,” as required by North Carolina law. As a result, the Court found the firm’s client NOT GUILTY of both counts.
j., charged with DWI (september 2019):
pretrial hearing outcome: case dismissed for lack of probable cause to arrest.
In this case Mr. Hiltzheimer’s client was charged with Driving While Impaired following a traffic stop for speeding 25 miles per hour over the posted speed limit. The officer conducted standardized field sobriety tests, but after careful review, the defense determined that the tests were done improperly and recruited an expert to testify at a pretrial hearing challenging the basis for the arrest. The court granted the defense motion to suppress a BAC of .14, and dismissed the DWI charge.
h., charged with DWI (march 2018):
trial outcome: case dismissed for insufficiency of evidence.
Mr. Hiltzheimer’s client was charged with Assault With a Deadly Weapon With Intent to Kill, a Class E felony, and Discharging a Firearm into an Occupied Vehicle, a Class D felony, among other related charges. All charges arose from a domestic dispute in Durham, and the incident occurred in the middle of the afternoon on a residential street. Mr. Hiltzheimer negotiated a complete dismissal of all charges and secured an expungement for his client.
