The client was prosecuted for driving with excess alcohol (114 in blood). The issues in the case were the police had not supplied a container for independent analysis and the client was not medically fit to consent after sustaining injuries following a road traffic accident. Darren Withers (platinum lawyer) represented the client at the first hearing. Laura Heywood (reviewing lawyer) persuaded the prosecution to discontinue the charges as the SFR2 (level 2 forensic report) was provided shortly before trial with insufficient time for the defence expert to provide an opinion.
