What are the Penalties for a DUI first?
Attorney Franks: It depends on specific elements. For a a common vehicle drivers license it's suspension for up to four months a two hundred fifty to a $1000 penalty as much as two days behind bars and attending a MASEP training course or a Victims Impact Panel. If it is a commercial vehicle license after that the penalties are a lot more extreme in the that they shed their license for as much as 365 days which might put them out of work. After that we also have people under age 21. Depending upon their blood alcohol content they could be looking at a penalty of two hundred fifty dollars and also a 3 month suspension of their license along with the training course. The genuine difference is they don't have the 2 days in jail and they do not have the fine up to $1000.
Does there exist any type of way I can be found not guilty?
Attorney Franks: Absolutely. It's not uncommon to have a case rejected or head to trial and also have a person discovered not guilty. Actually the first trial I did as a criminal justice attorney was a DUI 2nd offense and the person was discovered not guilty on all the charges. It depends upon a great deal of points. It relies on the facts from when the persons flagged over. Did the officer have reasonable suspicion or probable cause to stop them? If they do not the remainder is cut off. On top of that policemen are people too. They make mistakes. They forget entering information required to prosecute someone successfully for a DUI. It is feasible to obtain a not guilty verdict on a DUI. That's where I can help as a criminal justice attorney.
If I'm not innocent do I have to do prison time?
Attorney Franks: It can carry up to 48 hours in jail. Nevertheless we ask for credit for time served. Then we ask the court to suspend the remaining time and they will typically comply. The objective of courts is not to harm individuals. They want individuals to continue to be effective residents.
Can I beg to a minimal offense?
Joey: No. The laws are really clear on this.
