Victory in the Ohio Supreme Court

Attorney Zachary Faris secured a dismissal of all charges for his client in a case that was argued in the Ohio Supreme Court. In State v. Turner, 2020 Ohio 6773, the Ohio Supreme Court agreed with Faris’ argument that it is not a violation of law, nor a valid basis for a stop by law enforcement, when a motorist touches, but does not cross over a white fog line on the edge of the road. This decision overturned the 12th District Court of Appeals decision and established precedent that will be important in many traffic and driving under the influence cases in Ohio moving forward. Following the decision in the Supreme Court, all charges were dismissed.
