BECAUSE YOU HIRE A LAWYER DOESN'T MEAN YOU WILL GET OFF FROM THE CHARGES. A LAWYER FORCES THE DA TO MEET THEIR BURDEN OF PROOF. WHETHER THE CLIENT DID THE ACT OR NOT IS NOT THE ISSUE. IT IS WHETHER THERE IS ENOUGH EVIDENCE TO... Read more »

I am sorry that you were going through this. In general they will not you apply for it driver's licence until you complete the dui class. You can call or go to your nearest driver safety office which is part of the DMV and ask them if there's anything you can do.
Good luck.
After googling I found it’s a year but I wanted to be 100% sure because today marks a year and I don’t know where to go from here:
Assuming you're correct and it's a misdemeanor, the statute of limitations is one year from the date of arrest. You should call the court and confirm that no charges have been filed, tomorrow.
No. Not unless there was a gun involved or an unlawful sexual act.

It is not your job to be his PD. The pd has years of experience. If you are not trying to hire him private counsel, then just let them do their job.
Ps A felony DUI has mandatory jail and or prison time.
Good luck
First DUI with BAC .09%. Due to COVID, i never saw my attorney or got the opportunity to appear in court. Questions and concerns often went unanswered and I was often told "don't worry about that right now". I knew I was being offered a plea deal of wet reckless, but wasn't... Read more »
There is only a small difference between a dui and a "wet reckless." Some Counties don't give out what you got. You didn't get a horrible deal, nor a great one.

I was convicted of a DUI in May of 2019 and I've already completed my alcohol classes, my community service, MADD, paid all my fines, and had a restricted license and a breathalyzer for 6 months so now the DMV reinstated my full license. The only thing I have left to complete is my Hospital... Read more »
Yes. You may make a motion to the court to modify your sentence.
Can this be thrown out .
If that actually happened, they would lack any realistic chain of custody and certainly would assist your attorney in having any result excluded. However, there are other ways of proving you had too much to drink. Best to hire an experienced DUI trial lawyer to assist you.
Administrative hearing found her guilty of denying chemical test even though she did not refuse urinalysis. PD stated "they were not set up for that"
DL suspended for 1 year
No court date set by DA
In general, no. The PD cannot handle DMV hearings, at least typically they don't. The DMV rules based on the police reports. It looks like
No. Unfortunately, they don't need to drop the charges.
He was sentenced to 9 yrs for DUI with gbi .he was not offered an rehabilitation or a recovery home. if there is any pro Bono lawyer that's taking new cases
If your fiancé was convicted after trial, or after a guilty plea, then he has as a matter of right the ability to file an appeal within 60-days of the date of judgment. If he cannot afford an attorney, he will have an attorney appointed at no cost.
I got a DUI 17 years ago (3/04) in California BEFORE I had a license. I served prison time on a unrelated charge. I paroled in 2007 and completely changed my life. I went to DMV and got a license when I paroled. Ever since then I have never had a problem renewing my license until this last time.... Read more »
Many alcohol schools are online now. Ask them if you can speed up the classes. 4xweek? 5xweek?
Person was arrested for dui, trucked parked on private property. Person wasn’t caught driving. Sitting in his truck at liquor store. Now tow is $500 today .
Generally, parking lots (while being privately owned) are deemed "public" and are subject to enforcement of laws as any public area. While the officers could have left your legally parked car alone, they also have the authority to tow it, and your case, they did.
Depends. Could be manslaughter or could be 2nd degree murder.
How early can you get out of prison on this charge if you have good behavior?
It's not how early, it's how long. One person could be 6 years. Plus any other charges. But in theory, with a good lawyer and facts, you could avoid any prison time.
Person in coma lives, wakes up.
Driver has a previous DUI charge.
Takes place in Los Angeles, California.
(*Note: this is research for a novel)
Generally 23153 w GBI but that assumes intoxication, not just drinking. May be other charges too.
.
It's very unlikely. If contacted you should not answer any questions without an attorney present. But I wouldn't worry about it currently. Supplying alcohol to a minor and consuming alcohol as a minor are both crimes. Be careful heading down that path.
