Police come upon client after witnessing her hit curb causing blow out. Client is dressed only in felt elf’s costume following Christmas caroling party. Client admits to drinking beers over course of evening. Police allege client fails field sobriety tests. Civilian witness corroborates that client was sober when she left party. Husband testifies that client so emotionally upset during arrest that she is physically sick on drive home from police station. Defense attributes less than perfect field sobriety performance to nervousness, fear and embarrassment and frigid conditions without proper clothing. Not guilty verdict following trial.
