He’s already completed everything he needed to do and paid all his fines. he just needs to get SR-22 and reinstate his license. are we able to move out of california and still be able to do so?
You can move out of state as long as he is not on a felony probation. Being on summary (usually misdemeanor) probation has no affect on your ability to move out of state (or even out of the country).

I would encourage you to contact a local lawyer and have a meeting to discuss the facts of your case. If you were over the limit, involved in an accident and fled the scene without leaving your insurance or other contact information you are going to need a lawyer to defend you. Quite likely you...

could you go to court alone if you are turning 18 before the court date ?
There are so many variables in this it’s hard to answer. The case will be handled in the juvenile courts. There certainly will be some very stiff punishments and more so if someone was injured. There will a significant license suspension of at least a year. Likely to be charged with multiple... Read more »
I have never had a Class A license before
MORE INFO NEEDED.
WITH A 2ND DUI WITHIN 10 YEARS, YOUR LICENSE IS SUSPENDED FOR 1 YEAR
HOWEVER, IF IT WERE A RECENT DUI YOU CAN INSTALL THE IGNITION INTERLOCK DEVICE. (IID)
YOU SAY THEY WERE BOTH IN 2013 SO YOU WOULD NOT BE ELIGIBLE FOR IID.
From interlock company what you say in hearing
SB1046 ALLOWS IGNITION INTERLOCKS, BUT ONLY FOR DUI'S AFTER 1/1/19

You can check the California Bar website (https://www.calbar.ca.gov/), any person who has been licensed to practice in CA is listed as is their status to practice law and any disciplinary action taken against them.

Call Mandatory Actions 1.916.657.6525, they can tell you what you need to do to get your license reinstated.
To get my charges dismissed or overturned because of this? Or am I just suppose to waste time and wait for all this to blow over?
The current situation is unlikely to result in either your charges being dropped or your conviction being overturned. Your question cannot be completely answered because charges being dropped presupposes that prosecution of your case hasn't started or been completed, whereas, overturned... Read more »
I have had 2 dui and driving on a suspended license cases in the past. Using my finger prints my FBI background check shows these cases but doesn't clearly show that these cases have ended. What type of paperwork can I ask from the court to show that these cases have concluded and that there... Read more »
If by closed you mean settled, each case has a disposition order, that indicates your plea (or verdict) and sentence, you may be able to get the paperwork at any courthouse, but definitely at the courthouse where the case was prosecuted. Regarding open cases, that's what the background check... Read more »
Trying to avoid social interaction, this is a serious issue in the US.
more info needed.
each county is different.
i just read today of LA continuing cases and here in Riverside Co they are likewise putting cases over.
you should call a local lawyer or request a public defender to assist you for you courthouse.
.....
It won't be dismissed for medical reasons, you may be found "not guilty" by a jury following a jury trial. You should contact a local DUI defense attorney to discuss your medical issues and how they can be developed into a defense.
My license was suspended in 2011 for DUI.
No, in my experience there is no medical exemption to a DUI suspension. You should contact Mandatory Actions (1.916.657.6525) to determine what you need to do to get your license reinstated. Driving on a suspended license can put your car in impound, you in jail and has fines similar to those of... Read more »
Can I plea guilty on the day of my arraignment so I can speed things up? I pick up my children every friday and drop them off every Sunday. Its a 4 hr drive , 2 going and 2 coming. What can I do so I'm still able to do that?
Contact Mandatory Actions 1.916.657.6525 they can tell you for sure; probably you will need to enroll in a DUI program appropriate for your blood alcohol concentration, file and SR22, pay reinstatement fees and get an Ignition Interlock Device installed on your car.
I got a DUI and its my first offense. I was told I can't leave my county . I have a job which requires for me to drive to and from work. Also on Fridays I drive 2 hrs to a different county because I meet halfways with my baby daddy so that I can have my kids during the weekend and on Sundays I... Read more »
You need to request a DMV hearing within 10 days of your arrest to make sure that your license isn't automatically suspended on day 30. The requirement not to leave the county is confusing, presumably you haven't seen a judge so there can't be an "order" limiting your... Read more »

I didn't applied for a CA restricted license. I hired a private driver. After I have completed my 18 moths program. Do I still need the interlock device?
Call Mandatory Actions 1.916.657.6525 or ask your lawyer.
My son has been in jail since November. He was arrested for his 3rd DUI in Sonoma County. The deal was that he does half of his sentence and then does the DUI program. The court messed up and is making him do his whole sentence and still do the program. What can we do?
You should contact your son's attorney so that he can calendar the case and tell the court the problem. You should also call the jail and tell them that you think your son is overdetained and have them release him asap

My friend got a dui and there were two people in the car. She was told by a police officer friend that if both of them say they weren’t driving, another person was and basically make up a person, say the friend was driving and ran That they can’t prove who was driving the ca and... Read more »
You have several issues here surrounding your question. The standard of proof for conviction is "beyond a reasonable doubt" that your friend was driving, and that an acceptable scientifical test was performed that your friend was under the influence based upon the blood alcohol level as...
