Legal Question in DUI Law in Pennsylvania

DUI in PA...?

i was arrested in sept. for a DUI in PA... it's my 2nd (1st being in 2000), and because i refused a blood test it's a mandatory 90 day sentence for the offense. i'm an out of state resident though, and happened to miss a court date. i never plead guilty nor have i been found guilty yet, i know there's a bench warrant, but if i don't return to PA, is there a 2 year statute after which case the case itself will be thrown out and i can no longer be convicted??? i'm trying to figure out if i should turn myself in, do the 90days and lose my license for a year, or just avoid PA and keep it moving???

You should NOT just avoid PA. You need to address this issue, because it will only get worse. Feel free to give our office a call to discuss your options.
