Felony Probation and got a DUI, what happens?
A year ago my brother was sentenced to 3 years probation for forging his gf's checks. We are talking thousands of dollars. It was mostly for alcohol. The judge put him on probation for 3 yrs with random drug & alcohol testing (which in a years time the court never did a random test). Well, about 3 wks ago my brother got a DUI. He got it for DUI, no ins, container, wrongfull u-turn. The breath test read a 2.8 alcohol level, here in NE legal limits are I think 0.8. He refused a blood test that night & had to b on suicide watch cause he kept mouthing off to cops in the jail. His gf bailed him out 24hrs later. He also got a ticket for fictisious plates on another car about 2 months b 4 and hasn't paid that ticket. He hasn't been paying all his probation fee's, etc drug testing monthly fee's, etc. He had court yesterday for his DUI, he asked 4 an attorney so they rescheduled his court for Sept 22. With his felony charge,DUI, probation, breaking probation, fictious plate ticket, then does it look as if he may serve jail or prison time. My brother has been in jail b for 4 bad checks. He hasn't been a good person. He needs to wake up and smell that rum doesn't go in the coffee. We live in Nebraska. Any 1 know where I may b able to find the laws for this. The family just wants to b prepared as to what may happen. I love my brother to death but we have all had enough and he is going to end up killing himself or others if he doesn't change. Any help or information or links would b greatly appreciated. Thank E1

What do you think An illegal alien from Mexico was arrested Sunday on a DUI complaint struck 5 year old child?

What excuse will the pro illegal have this one ?An illegal immigrant from Mexico was arrested Sunday on a DUI complaint after police say he struck a child with a car.

The 5-year-old boy reportedly was taken to a hospital in serious condition, but he has since improved, and his injuries are not believed to be life-threatening, police said.

Darbin Alejoz-Ramirez, 23, was arrested on complaints of driving under the influence and causing an injury collision, driving with no driver's license, having no proof of insurance and injury to a minor child. He told police that he is an illegal immigrant, so a hold for Immigration and Customs Enforcement was placed on him at the Tulsa Jail.

Police said the child rode his bicycle from between two parked cars into the path of Alejoz-Ramirez's Chevrolet Blazer about 3 p.m. Sunday at the Colonial Park Apartments in the 7600 block of East 21st Street.

Alejoz-Ramirez smelled of alcohol, had bloodshot eyes and failed portions of sobriety tests, an arrest report states. He agreed to a blood test and was taken to a hospital to have blood drawn.

I was stopped for a DUI and refused the tests…what happens now?

admin — Thu, 21 Jul 2011 15:53:06 +0000

I was stopped for suspected DUI and was taken to have a blood test done. While at the hospital, the officer told me to sign something. I told him they could take my blood but I didnt feel comfortable signing anything. He told me I had 2 choices
1. Sign and they take my blood and I go to jail
OR
2. Dont sign and I can go home

At the time, option 2 sounded like the best choice. Once we got back to the station he said by not signing I had admitted guilt and would lose my license. I asked to go back and I would take the test but was told no, I had no further options...I had my chance.
I guess my question now is:
Is there anything I can do to get out of it?

I know I made a mistake but shouldn't they advise me of the laws? Ignorance of the law is no excuse but it was as if he was purposely pushing me to make the wrong choice.

AZ DUI Law – no blood test?

admin — Wed, 22 Sep 2010 01:29:22 +0000

My brother got a DUI on Saturday. They never did a blood test only the breathalizer. Is that legal? Can they legally charge him with a extreme DUI or any DUI at that?
He said they never mentioned a blood test. Never asked so he never refused. The first cop's breathalyzer wasn't working so he called back up so he could use the other officers. He said that the police was very nice. He was pulled over for going 58 in a 45. There was no accident or anything. The officer apparently thought he was showing signs of drinking so he did the sobriety tests.

Glendale, California DUI?

admin — Sun, 11 Apr 2010 06:31:12 +0000

I was pulled over for tossing a cigarette out of a window on halloween. Cop was part of a task force in Glendale, CA to bust DUI's. I just pulled into a gas station I admit I did not signal and did toss a cigarrette out the window. First I was asked if I had been drinking I said yes at dinner. Followed by being accused of smoking marijuana over and over and over again, even after being handcuffed. Cop said my tongue was green. After about 30 minute FST I submitted to breathalyzer and blew .082. This was about 45 min after dinner. THen taken down for blood test. I do not know those results yet. The cop constantly berrated me for questions and explanations for my behavior. For example he asked me to stand with my feet together and hands at my side. Instinctively to be comfortable I put my hands in my pockets and spread my feet a few inches. After doing the 9 step straight line test I spined on my feet and walked back, which he said he believed I did not do as he said which was to take small steps in turning. yes I was legally drunk when he did breathalyzer according to it, I do not know when he pulled he pulled up behind more in the gas station or when I got the blood test.

Friend was in car with me, she can testify to how they treated me. Documentation also proves how distracted they where. They were so busy staring at her that they put her birthdate down on the DMV form rather then mine.

First question what are my options?
Second question do the cops have right to belittle and do everything they can to try to scare a confession out of a person like this?

I have long hair, and used to have bad teeth so have been accused atleast dozen times in past 10 years of being a drug addict, drunk etc.. even with no drinks or any other substance in my system. One cop told me I exhibited being under influence (I get nervous now around cops), other admited way I look is reason. Both of these never charged me. I have almost accepted I am persecuted for how I look, but still makes me nervous. This is my first DUI.

Is it possible to have a DUI/DUI Drugs charge dropped?

admin — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 11:24:38 +0000

I currently have a DUI and DUI drugs charge against me. It is my first offense and I have a clean record. The DUI is going to be fought as I had a fever and suffered an Asthma attack during the traffic stop. I was denied my asthma inhaler which effected my oxygen levels and had an anxiety attack on top of that. I am a regular marijuana user and had a blood test taken. The results will obviously show marijuana use within the 24 hours of arrest.

MY questions are: Can the charges be dropped or reduced with a clean record? Will my license be taken away and for how long. Is there any way to dispute the license suspension? Will I be able to receive lenience as I am a full time college student and work full time? Any additional information on DUI/DUI drugs charges in Phoenix would be helpful.

Okay so my brother in law is an idiot...

He has 3 DUI'S one he just recently got last week. the first two was for having alcohol in his system and this recent one was for failing a blood test for marijuana.

I AM COMPLETELY AGAINST ANYONE WHO HAS HAD A DUI AND HAS PUT OTHERS LIVES IN DANGER....

[its scary how much power another has on someone else's life. & they don't seem to care]

What will happen to him? what are the consequences? it seems to me like he has gotten off easy from the judge the first two times...

BY THE WAY he will make 21 in december!

I ask this because he is staying at my home and i dont want him there but my husband cant turn his back on his good for nothing brother. he is still smoking weed and his license were suspended and he is still driving around...

im not an evil B**** but i have children and if he cant change after his 3rd offense i dont want him near my kids or have those substances around my new home....
Basically i want to know what is his chances of going to prison....

thank you for all your advice... i seriously appreciate it and he needs to get out and i WILL CALL THE COPS to have him picked up the next time he leaves the home or he has any type of drug on him...i just dont want him here... so i will talk to my husband and our kids are definitely our first priority...=] thank you again...

DUI charge – the policeman lied and said my father refused to take the breathalyzer test?

admin — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 00:03:23 +0000

what extra charges do you get? how can he combat this without pleading not guilty? this is disgusting...help. he can't get his hardship license for 90 days now because of it
would like to note that there was no blood test taken(what they do if you dont atke breathalyzer) and he admitted to being drunk immediately after being stopped
he took the test, i saw it. however i just found out he wasnt blowing hard enough. the policeman gave him 3 tries and then stopped. i guess this counts as refusal? ive never felt more angry. to the first answerer, you are a scumbag if you believe someone should lose their hardship license and not be able to drive to work for 90 days and you are more of a scumbag if you think any of those people get drunk within that time frame. commit suicide with the two sided sword of your own ideals
and to the shameful first answerer, yes it is his first offense. please look up things before you answer questions about them, or better yet get your sheep hands off of the keyboard
i guess i should clarify that the 90 days without a hardship is directly because of a breathalyzer refusal charge, and there is 6 months added to license suspension. BUT WE BETTER KEEP DEM WORKING CLASS PEOPLE OFF THE STRETE TO WORK FOR 3 EXTRA MONTHS SO WE R SAFE DRIVING TO THE K MART..THEY GOT SOME GOOD DEALS THERE AT THE INDIANA K MART!!! THIS IS WHERE WE FILMED HOOSIERS
he wants to plead guilty and pay all the fines and do community service etc but the fact is that he does not get his hardship work license for 90 days now because of this non communication. the cop purposely wrote up the ticke tbefore the breathalyzer test so we would have no idea he put him down as refused. ugh
he did go to prison, garbage marine guy. he was bailed out. it's a regular dui. this is added on. oh my god what is wrong with you horrible people who have no idea what youre answering about
yeah, he didn't get a machine test. i guess we do have a "case" per se but a dui lawyer is like 5 thousand isnt it..he was meaning to plead guilty and still is. im glad theres some helpful peopl ehere

Do DUI blood tests test for THC?

admin — Sat, 26 Dec 2009 15:59:36 +0000

So I just got a DUI the other night in Scottsdale Arizona. I was celebrating my friend coming home after not seeing him for a while. We decided to smoke some pot and then go to the bar. Well I got pulled over a few hours later, and when they took me to the station they had my blood drawn. I haven't smoked weed in months prior to this so I'm a little worried. Will The marijuana show up in my blood test? Will they even look for it?
