Legal Question in DUI Law in California

I went to get my DL and was told that i had to complete a 2nd time offenders class because the DMV says I had a dui in 1991 and 1996 and never went to any class. Now first of all I don't recall getting a dui in 1991 and the one in 1996 was put into a plea bargin that i took but was never blood urine, or breath tested for. These are 19 and 14 years old. Do I still have to attend the classes?

Yes you do. The Department of Motor Vehicles has seperate procedures from court, and even if you were not convicted or had a plae bargain, if the DMY says you have two "findings" by them against you, then you must completer the 18 month school.
