You certainly didn’t have to wait 10 years to seek reinstatement of your license.

Every DUI carries the potential of jail time. However, on a 2nd time felony offense you’re more likely to have some time. You definitely need to hire a lawyer to review your case and not just agree to whatever the DA is offering.

Yes. The State can file your case any time during the statute of limitations. Just keep in touch with your bondsman and check oscn.net.
