A: In KY any DUI can be reduced or dismissed if the circumstances and facts warrant it. If you have a strong defense and or the prosecutor's case is weak then yes it is possible. Can your specific case be amended? That is not possible to determine without looking at the case and knowing all of the facts of the DUI stop and what lead to the stop and actions taken by you and the police in the course of your DUI arrest and post arrest. The general answer is yes it is possible to be acquitted of any crime after a trial and also possible to have the charges reduced or dropped if you have a strong defense and the prosecutors lack evidence.
