Re: Dwi
On the first DWI it is rare that you would be given the maximum penalty. There must have been extenuating circumstances.
Not setting bail is also unheard of. You could have gone to a superior court to have the no bail reviewed.
Your rights were violated, but the judge is going to rectify it by giving you significant jail time.
You should have a lawyer represent you. If you do not have one, please feel free to contact me.
