In every California DUI case the accused faces a license suspension, ignition interlock and long term SR-22 insurance requirements if their blood alcohol level was at or above .08%. In this case Matthew was able to get the DMV Judge to throw out the breathalyzer results of .11/.11 by showing his client was still in the “absorptive phase” at the time of driving and therefore his blood alcohol levels were lower than .08%. This technique is referred to as the “Rising Blood Alcohol Defense” and Attorney Matthew Ruff has over 30 years experience using it to beat DUI charges.

Attorney Ruff presented evidence at the hearing using the assistance of an expert blood alcohol toxicologist who testified using a technique known as “retrograde extrapolation”. Understanding the methodology is key to presenting this defense effectively.
