Legal Question in DUI Law in California
Help with dui
I received a dui back in 7/16/01 and just received another one on 6/22/09. Now I have already gone to court and they set me up with first offender program. But when I went there they told me I have another dui. I thought that the dui from 7/16/01 only took 7 years to roll off my dmv record (that was the law then). So why would it still be a second offense?

10 years, not 7. You now should only be offered repeat offender program. If the court allowed otherwise, consider yourself lucky.

10 years, not 7; and it never 'rolls' off your record; it's just that after 10 years it does not count as a 'prior'. You now should only be offered repeat offender program. If the court allowed otherwise, consider yourself lucky.

However, you may be able to expunge it once you finish probation for this current charge. Contact me when that happens to discuss. You now should only be offered repeat offender program. If the court allowed otherwise, consider yourself lucky.
