The Brisbane Drink Driving Lawyer team achieved an outstanding result for our client at Ipswich Magistrates Court recently.
Our client was charged with Drug Driving, specifically driving with a relevant drug present in their saliva.
This was our clients second drug driving offence within 12 months.
As our client had lost their licence 12 months ago, they were not eligible for a Drug Driving Work Licence.
Our client faced a maximum licence disqualification period of 18 months.
The mandatory minimum licence disqualification is 3 months.
Whilst still being an adult, our client was quite young.
They had concerns that a lengthy disqualification would impact their employment, and career prospects.
We prepared detailed submissions of the relevant legislation and case law.
We made strong verbal submissions to the Magistrate.
We persuaded the Magistrate to impose the mandatory minimum disqualification period of 3 months with a modest fine.
Our client was very happy.
