On July 15, 2010, defense attorney Max A. Keller of Keller Law Offices won a jury trial acquittal on behalf of his client on a count of driving under the influence of alcohol. Mr. Keller’s client was acquitted of this DWI charge even thought the client had tested over the legal limit and had put his car in a snowbank. Mr. Keller successfully challenged the un-scientific field sobriety tests, such as the “Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus” (HGN) eye test. Mr. Keller also showed that the police officer failed to administer the field sobriety tests in the manner in which he claimed. In addition, Mr. Keller showed that the police officer did not administer the field sobriety tests in the manner he was trained according to the NHTSA (Natl. Hwy. Traffic Safety Administration) manual. Therefore the tests were not valid.
