Common Questions About Refusal Cases

Can refusing a breath test lead to penalties?

Yes. Refusing a breath test may result in license suspension, fines, ignition interlock requirements, and other penalties. These consequences may apply separately from a DWI charge depending on the circumstances surrounding the traffic stop and arrest.

Can a refusal charge be challenged in court?

Yes. These allegations may be challenged if there were issues involving the traffic stop, arrest procedures, officer instructions, or the handling of the breath test request. Problems involving police conduct or testing instructions may affect how the case moves forward.

Does a refusal charge mean automatic conviction?

No. Prosecutors must still prove the charge in court. Factors such as the officer’s conduct, the legality of the stop, and whether proper warnings were provided may influence how the refusal case proceeds through the municipal court.
