Katherine Polk Walker, 29, charged with DUI first offense test refusal and leaving the scene of an accident, property damage to attend vehicle. Case dismissed — upon defendant’s motion to dismiss, the court finds that citation No. 5365 has not been properly sworn to and it its therefore fatally defective. The DUI citation is dated Nov. 3, 2013, but the Intox No. 1P-01E shows a test date of Nov. 11, 2013, (12 days earlier) and the witness, Timothy Guice, for leaving the scene charge is not present for trial. Therefore, both charges are dismissed and defendant’s attorney should present proof of insurance.
