old dui
My son recently discovered that he had a warrent out for an old dui charge. he was picked up in 2003, went to court ,and put on probation. He did driver improvment, comm. service, but missed his last two counsling sessions.We heard no more from his att. ,but the att. went in to court later we found out without telling him the outcome. He vol. turned himself in .Were they supposed to read him his rights again?

Miami DUI Lawyer Re: old dui
Generally speaking, when a person is arrested the police are not required to read them the standard Miranda rights (right to remain silent, anything said can be used against the person in court, right to an attorney present at questioning, right to a free attorney if the person cannot afford one) if the police do not intend to interrogate the person after the arrest. However, if questioning (besides general name, address, etc.) did take place, Miranda warnings are required and if not read there may be avenues your son could pursue. If you have any further questions you can contact my office to set up a free consultation appointment. 305.670.3119. Joseph P. Vredevelt, Esq. Best & Associates, P.A.
