Legal Question in DUI Law in Florida

Dui for an open container??

My friend was in a parking lot when he was asked to pull over by- a cop standing outside of her car. When she approached his window she noticed an open beer bottle and asked him to step out of the car. The cop proceeded to hand cuf him and took him to jail without giving him any type of test to check his blood alchol level. He went to jail for two days can he fight this Dui if no test was taken???

I would agree that based upon those facts you have a fighting chance. There are other factors present that could also be raised. Call my office before your next court date to set up a free consultation.
