Listen young one. You’re Fucked! seriously though I’ve been up and down that road before. You will actually have your license suspended for a year. Now you’re only 19 so you might get hit with underage drinking too. But, if that already charged you with the DUI and haven’t the underage drinking then you’re cool on that one. You will most likely have to go to driving school and also community service. And maybe a fine. I say maybe because I didn’t get one. But I know people who have. And if you do get one it’s going to be over a thousand dollars they don’t mess around with DUI’s! But, as for the lawyer I would say no because you will be apointed one if you want. And plus you might have that fine to pay you can’t be paying lawyers and fines. And if your breatholizer test was low or not even recorded you might get it dismised. or light punishment. If I was you I wouldn’t sweat it that much because it’s nothing you can do now. But if they ask you did you think say yes. But tell them that you do not advocate drinking and driving, and that you thought you were good to go. You even waiting an hour or more before you drove. but make sure you know what paper work they have. because like I said if it wasn’t recorded, then you never did it! But whatever happens dude don’t drink and drive anymore because you really could kill someone and trust me no punishment is worst then that! Oh, if they suspend your license DON’T DRIVE! because it’s gonna be hell to pay if they catch your ass! Mine was here in Cali too! Be easy young pimpin’!
Depends on your judge. Could be a slap on the wrist, a fine, probation, suspension, jail time. You are legal age of course. Just expect the worse. Your first offense is normally not too harsh but like I said it depends on your judge.
You could be screwed depending on your county.
Orange County does not take kindly to DUI offenders and many areas have mandatory sentencing for DUIs.
Get a good attorney. It might be worth the expense and if you cant afford one listen to your defense attorney. Hopefully he will cut a deal for you with the DA
If you cant afford a good attorney then you might be better off going with the public defender. They actually have more resources at their disposal than most private attorneys and they have relationships with the DA and the judges.
Are you a sportsman or a movie star?If not, maybe cell time.
I’m glad I’m not YOU!
But it’s not the end of the world.
Check your local White Pages or Google/Yahoo for a lawyer. They’ll consult with you for a small fee and be able to give you a clear, concise answer for your questions.
Good luck and blessings. Please be more careful and responsible in the future, sweetie.
The officer is required by law to immediately forward a copy of the completed notice of suspension or revocation form and any driver license taken into possession, with a sworn report to the DMV. The DMV automatically conducts an administrative review that includes an examination of the officer’s report, the suspension or revocation order, and any test results. If the suspension or revocation is upheld during the administrative review, you may request a hearing to contest the suspension or revocation.
You have the right to request a hearing from the DMV within 10 days of receipt of the suspension or revocation order. If the review shows there is no basis for the suspension or revocation, the action will be set aside.
You will be notified by the DMV in writing only if the suspension or revocation is set aside following the administrative review.
Hope this helps!
my dad got a dui he was fine they put a stamp in his lisence for like 6 months then he got a new one so he couldnt drive till he got a new lisence
Have you ever been in trouble before. If not and you have no money for a lawyer you will be given a court appointed one and more than likely they will tell you to plead the first offense. Which means you will plead guilty get a little time and or community service and be on probation after the probation IF you don't get in anymore trouble they will wipe it from your record. At least that is what happened to a friend I know of course he didn't stay out of trouble so he went to jail and it is all on his record.
He's an idot thou.
