Steven A. Tomeo & Associates

Criminal Defense
I practice Criminal Law. I have a client arrested for breach of peace whose arraignment is not scheduled until November—the arraignment was continued several times by the Court because of Court closures caused by the pandemic. The Court for this case remains closed to the public but some of the cases are being docketed for people to appear at another location. The client is not in custody. The client suggests that his case should be dismissed because the arraignment is taking too long, he wants this over with as soon as possible and he wants to know whether I could move for a dismissal of the charges based on a lengthy time to arraignment. I have not been able to fashion an argument whereby because of this delay the charges should be dismissed.

DUI/DWI
Multiple First Offense DUIs: Receiving Subsequent Duis Prior to the First Case Being Resolved - Steven A. Tomeo & Associates, LLC.
Traffic Violations
The first task is observing the vehicle in motion which begins when the police officer sees you in your car. His attention may be drawn to the vehicle or you by such things as: a moving traffic violation; an equipment violation; an expired registration or inspection sticker; unusual driving actions, such as weaving within a lane or moving at slower than normal speeds; or “evidence of drinking” or drugs in vehicle. Many people touch the “fog line” or they may go over the center line, their light might be out or they commit some other type of traffic violation. When a police officer notices one of these variances or traffic violations he has three (3) choices: to stop the vehicle; continue to observe the vehicle; or disregard the vehicle. The police officer is taught that people who are impaired frequently exhibit certain effects of symptoms of impairment which include the following: slowed reactions; impaired judgment as evidenced by a willingness to take risks; impaired vision; and poor coordination. What you have here is a police officer who is observing you with his eyes and trying to determine whether or not any cues indicate that you are under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs. The police officer is told and taught that the effects of alcohol on the driver lead to predictable driving violations and vehicle operating characteristics. Never mind that you may have these characteristics without taking a drink. The fact of the matter is that between certain hours when you exhibit these characteristics and/or cues and a police officer sees you, you are likely to be pulled over by him. Remember, the police officer is playing with house rules. It is like he is the casino and knows that you are going to lose if you drink and drive. You may exhibit these cues without drinking but the facts remain that you will be pulled over. The time of the day, the visual cues that the officer observes and other factors play into you being pulled over. Police Officers are taught that at certain blood alcohol concentration levels you exhibit slowed reactions, increased risk taking, impaired vision, and poor coordination. The police officer is policing the streets. He is told that he is protecting society. He is protecting society. He is not claiming to be perfect and no one is suggesting that he is perfect. However, he is given the responsibility to act under certain situations. The police officer is taught to look for people who are turning with a wide radius or are straddling the center or lane markers. He is also taught that there are certain appearances that he must be concerned with and they are eye fixation, tightly gripping the steering wheel, slouching, in the seat, gesturing erratically or obscenely, having your face close to the windshield, drinking in the vehicle, or the drivers head protruding from the vehicle. Other visual cue descriptions include almost striking an object or a vehicle, weaving, and driving on other than the designated roadway

Manslaughter

Personal Injury
Then, in 1977, I was admitted to the bar in Connecticut, and I practiced with an attorney for about two and a half years, handling criminal law and personal injury work. Then, I went out on my own and started a general practice.
