This time, I would not show up to court without council of a local DUI lawyer. I think the judge could really be tough on you. Sorry, but in my opinion you need to work for several weeks with that attorney. Good luck.

It all depends.

Is it your medication? Do you have a prescription? So you have a medical marijuana recommendation?

Can you get your license back? Why was it suspended?

This could be anything from misdemeanors for driving on a suspended license and possession of prescription medication without a prescription up to felony possession of a controlled substance.

You need a good criminal defense attorney. I'd strongly suggest you find someone who focuses on criminal law and who routinely practices in the court where this case will be heard.

If convicted, you are looking at jail...just how much, I couldn't tell you with the limited facts you supplied. You really should contact an experienced criminal defense attorney and go over all the facts, and the attorney will ask several questions......based on that conversation, you can get a better idea. Also, after you find the attorney you like, retain them and let them try to get you the very best outcome...... David Wallin
