Re: First DUI

Hello: I just read your question and the first reply. I agree it is hard to give a legal opinion on the probability of beating the charge without seeing the reports and hearing your side of the facts. As for your license, you should be able to apply for a hardship license now, even before your case is resolved. The Dept. of Highway Safety will require you to complete a class.

As for the case itself, you should get an atty if you are going to fight it or at least try to get the State to let you plead to reckless driving instead of DUI. If the State has a bad case, they are more likely to let us plead to reckless. The first thing I do in a DUI case is request discovery from the State. They have to give us all of the reports of what happened. We try to keep evidence out of a possible trial by alleging various improprieties by the officer, such as illegal stop, problems with breathalizer machine, etc. You may not be able to argue much, but you don't know until you get the reports.

The Court will allow us to pass the case for a few status conferences (pre-trials). Client doesn't have to go to those. Then if the court feels the defense and the State aren't moving fast enough towards a plea agreement, it will be set for a trial at a later date. Good luck. By the way, you should try to hire an atty as close to your jurisdiction as possible. 'Hope this helps. Tom Rosenblum
