DUI Outline for Georgia for 2016 by Ashley Schiavone

Georgia CLE Courses for DUI Cases

Ashley Schiavone is dedicated to her clients and the legal profession. She is passionate about educating others about good legal practice in DUI law, which has led her to initiate many projects outside of her own legal practice. Her latest project is an incredible opportunity to offer new material for Georgia CLE Courses. She is partnering with the Institute of Continuing Legal Education in Georgia (ICLEG) to publish a yearly DUI Case Outline.

The Dui Case Outline will be a reference guide for lawyers as they help their clients defend DUI cases. Members of the public can also use the guide to understand their case. It includes important issues throughout the timeline, from stop to conviction. It includes case law that supports defense and prosecution, as well as neutral cases. It also has a quick reference guide for license ramifications included in Georgia law.

Topics Covered in the New Publication

• Reasonable articulable suspicion and investigative stop
• Roadblocks
• “Be on the lookout” (BOLO) Stops
• Actual physical control of a moving vehicle
• Custody and coercion Issues
• Right to an independent test
• So much more!

Publishing Due in October

The newest edition of the DUI Outline will be published in October of this year, and will be updated on a yearly basis. Ms. Schiavone describes the project as one of her “proudest accomplishments.” In 2012, she began by self-publishing the work with a co-author Ramon Alvarado, Defending Dui: A Case Outline.
