Re: old dui

The police are pretty scrupulous about following up on DUIs. If he was never issued a summons and no Criminal Complaint was filed, he's probably okay. Most likely there was a summons, though, and a Criminal Complaint was filed and he will learn about it if he is ever pulled over again.
