Legal Question in DUI Law in Michigan

Re: DUI Conviction

This is a very delicate process, which if not followed to the letter, will result in years of denials. He will not win on appeal, he has to cease all use of alcohol right now. Next year, when he is eligible again, he needs competent DAAD counsel, a proper alcohol evaluation, a 10 panel drug screen and letters from between 6 and 10 people swearing to his long term sobriety.

Finally, this had to be at least a second offense or he would not be in this position with the Secretary of State. Visit me at www.kliszlaw.com to discuss the very important details of how to do this the right way. Tim klisz

Re: DUI Conviction

Sorry to rat out your future son-in-law, but he just didn't have "a" DUI 10 years ago, he had at least 3 in 10 years and probably more.

When he went to a hearing to get his license back and failed, the examiner informed him that he must be totally abstinent from alcohol for at least a year before his next hearing. He either doesn't pay attention or he can't stop drinking. If he can't stop drinking, he won't get a license. It's obvious he's doing nothing about his alcohol consumption or else he'd be going to AA or another rehab as some indicator of his sobriety which he must show his examiner.

You unwittingly put the kabosh on his last hearing when your letter revealed that he drank "very little" alcohol. 80% of alcoholics are beer drinkers.

Your sympathy for his drinking is puzzling.
