Legal Question in DUI Law in California

Failed to comply with D.U.I. classes

A warrant was put out on me for not finishing the D.U.I. classes. I was picked up on the warrant, and when I went to court I was given a document saying the D.A. was not filing any complaints at this time, but it says that I can still be called. What does that mean?, And if I was told the last time, If I didn't comply that I would recieve 180 days. What to do? and should I be worried?

Thanks for your posting, and I apologize for the slight delay in getting back to you. Sometimes a lawyer's day doesn't have enough time.

I'm not completely sure that I understand your question. Normally, failure to finish the DUI classes would result in a probation violation. In your court, the D.A. may decide whether or not to file a probation violation, and that you may have a case filed later. Normally, however probation violations are within the province of the judge, meaning that the prosecutor (D.A.) is not involved.

You may just need to clear up the warrant and get an extension on the alcohol school, if possible, depending upon your other terms of probation and how long it's been. Please email me at [email protected] if you have other questions or need help, and thank you again.
