Click Here! Need to post a traffic bond now ! Call 1-800-224-5937 DUI laws differ slightly from state to state, as a guide we will examine The California State DUI Laws and Rules below as a general example of DUI state laws. For specifics on a particular case speak to a DUI Lawyer who specializes in traffic offenses. "What will happen to me in the court on my first offense for DUI?" If you talk to an attorney there are all sorts of variables they will consider. MOST DUI (VC23152) first offenders receive in California. In Court $1200 fine. 3 years probation (informal - no probation officer). 3-5 days sheriff work alternative program (picking up trash, cleaning buses, etc.) OR 90 license restriction (to start AFTER 4 months DMV suspension is over). First Offender School (12 hrs/ 32 hrs / 45 hrs (3 month or 6 months) depending on blood alcohol levels. If the charge is reduced to a " wet-reckless ' the fine is lower and the course is only 12 hours. BUT If you want a restricted license, the DMV requires a completion certificate for a first offender program. A first offender program is 3 months long (sometimes the county makes it 4 months long). So, here is the catch 22. The court tells you to do a 12 hour program BUT the DMV has NO forms for a 12 month program and ONLY accepts completion forms for a 32 hour program! Get it? If you've got a 'wet-reckless' then you have to complete a 3 month program to get your license from the DMV! This is in addition to the four months immediate DMV suspension that starts 30 days after your DUI stop. The Complication These two ACTIONS (court and DMV) are SEPARATE and do not influence one another. Many times someone gets their license back by going to the DMV hearing and then is convicted in the court. When this happens what happens to your license gets ever more 'complicated'. And the reverse is true, people are innocent in the court and yet still have a license suspension with the DMV. With the conviction in the court you are allowed to get a restricted license AFTER a 30 day hard suspension (after the 30 day temporary license period is over = two months after you DUI stop). This allows you to drive to and from work and in the course of your employment and to and from the DUI class. The only 'draw back' to the license restriction is that it is restricted for 5 months (they say 6 but the DMV counts the first month of suspension). OR you can ride out the 4 months suspension period and get you license back. BUT, once the court notifies the DMV that you have been convicted of a DUI or a wet reckless and as part of your probation you have been sent to a First Offender Program. The requirement to show proof of completion of the program will be added to the list of items needed (Proof of Insurance SR-22 and pay $100) to get your license returned. DMV Hearings The suspension will be 'stayed' for six months or until the hearing is held. The driver will have a license BUT if the person loses the hearing (most do) then the 4 month suspension will go into effect and after a hard 30 days suspension a 5 month restricted license, driving to and from work, could be issued.

The Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles recently published a bulletin relating to DUI cases; you can CLICK HERE (.PDF file) to view it. Most importantly, if you have been arrested for DUI in Nevada, you must request a DMV hearing immediately, or lose your right to have one. CLICK HERE (.PDF file) to view a DMV Hearing Request Form. DMV Hearings are conducted through the DMV's Office of Administrative Hearings . They can provide more information about your obligations under Nevada drunk driving laws. In Nevada "Driving Under The Influence" means operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs to a degree that renders one unable to safely drive a vehicle. It is not necessary for one to be drunk to be arrested for or convicted of DUI in Nevada. Nevada DUI convictions can be obtained where a person operates a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol, OR operates a vehicle with a blood alcohol level (BAL) or breath alcohol content (BAC) of .08 or greater . Nevada DUI cases can be brought against a person who may appear normal, but who is above the legal limit of .08% BAC. This is called Nevada's "Per Se" law , meaning that it is illegal to be above a .08 no matter what the person's impairment level actually is. DUI arrests in Nevada also trigger the new implied consent law. All Nevada drivers have impliedly consented to a test of their blood or breath for alcohol content simply by obtaining a Nevada driver's license or by driving on Nevada's roads. There is no more right in Nevada to refuse to provide a breath or blood sample if arrested for DUI. This means that the police may use force to draw blood, if necessary, to obtain evidence to use against someone in a Nevada drunk driving case . top The goal of our Nevada DUI lawyers in representing a DUI client is to obtain a dismissal of the charges, an acquittal in trial, or a non-DUI disposition. While this is not always possible, the only chance for success in a Nevada drunk driving case is to have a skilled drunk driving defense attorney . It is extremely important that you be familiar with the issues involved in a typical DUI case so that you may aid and participate in your defense and make informed choices regarding your case. It is also vitally important that you tell your DUI defense lawyer all of the facts , so that he or she is able to best help defend the drunk driving case. There are three ways for a prosecutor to prove a Nevada DUI case. Keep in mind that unless each element of the case is proved beyond a reasonable doubt, the defendant in a DUI case is entitled to a verdict of "not guilty." A Nevada driving under the influence case can be prosecuted under any of the following theories: By proving that the defendant was a less safe driver due to impairment by alcohol and/or drugs by using the officer's observations, including the manner of driving , field sobriety test , the way the driver appeared physically, and the chemical test (or refusal to take a chemical test, which is considered "consciousness of guilt" in a DUI case) . By proving the defendant was driving the vehicle at a time when his blood alcohol level (BAL) was .08% or greater. The prosecutor must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the test you were given was a valid test and administered properly, and that you were driving within TWO (2) hours of the chemical (breath or blood) test. This is called Nevada's Per Se law; it doesn't matter how well someone is driving. Violating this law is purely a function of body chemistry. The state of Nevada has a "Per Se" level of prohibited substances: amphetamine, cocaine or bezoylecognine (cocaine metabolite) , heroin or morphine or 6-monoacetyl morphine (heroin metabolite) , LSD, marijuana or marijuana metabolite, methamphetamine, and phenycyclidine. If you have a certain level of any of these substances in your blood while driving you will be presumed to have violated the Driving Under the Influence statute. This presumption may be rebutted by a prescription. NOTE: In the state of Nevada there is no longer any right to refuse to submit to a chemical test. If you do not consent to a breath or a blood test the officer may force you to give a blood sample, pursuant to Nevada law. top Penalties for DUI in Nevada The penalties for driving under the influence depend on whether one has had a DUI conviction within the past SEVEN (7) years. The 7-year "washout" period is calculated from the prior DUI arrest date to the current DUI arrest date. CONVICTION: A person that pleads no contest, pleads guilty or is found guilty at trial is subject to the following judicial penalties: DUI FIRST OFFENSE: JAIL: 48 hours up to a maximum of six (6) months imprisonment, or, at least ninety-six (96) hours of community service. The court may allow you to do community service in lieu of the mandatory jail time. FINES AND ASSESSMENTS: A minimum of $340.00 to a maximum of $1,175.00 (DUI fines and assessments). SUSPENSION OF DRIVING PRIVILEGES: A criminal conviction for a 1st offense DUI results in a 90-day suspension of driving privileges. It is possible to obtain a restricted license that allows driving to, from, and in the course of employment after 45 days have passed. OTHER PENALTIES: The Court will always impose the requirement that you attend an 8-hour course of DUI school , a DUI assessment program with a $100.00 fee if the blood alcohol is .18% or more, and a Victim Impact Panel with a $40.00 fee. The court may also order a Breath Interlock Device be attached to your vehicle (at your expense) for three to six months. top DUI SECOND OFFENSE: JAIL: Minimum of TEN (10) days up to SIX (6) months. FINES AND ASSESSMENTS: Fines and assessments of SIX HUNDRED SEVENTY-FIVE DOLLARS ($675.00) to ONE THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED SEVENTY-FIVE DOLLARS ($1,175.00) . LOSS OF LICENSE: ONE (1) year OTHER PENALTIES: The court may order ONE HUNDRED (100) to TWO HUNDRED (200) hours community service, DUI assessment program, treatment program , Breath Interlock Device from SIX (6) to TWELVE (12) months, Victim Impact Panel, and a THIRTY-FIVE DOLLAR ($35.00) civil penalty to the Department of Motor Vehicles. top DUI THIRD OR SUBSEQUENT OFFENSE: Conviction of three or more DUI's within SEVEN (7) years of the date of the first DUI arrest is a FELONY. JAIL: A minimum of ONE (1) year to SIX (6) years in a Nevada State Prison. FINES AND ASSESSMENTS: TWO THOUSAND EIGHTY-FIVE DOLLARS ($2,085.00) to FIVE THOUSAND EIGHTY-FIVE DOLLARS ($5,085.00) . LOSS OF LICENSE: THREE (3) years OTHER PENALTIES: Breath interlock device from TWELVE (12) to THIRTY-SIX (36) months from release from prison, Victim Impact Panel, THIRTY-FIVE DOLLARS ($35.00) civil penalties to the Department of Motor Vehicles. top DRUG OFFENSES IN DUI CASES: While a DUI offense involving drugs may be prosecuted by the State as a misdemeanor, beyond the misdemeanor DUI/ Drugs penalties set forth above, Nevada law specifies that possessing ANY amount of a controlled substance, for instance marijuana or cocaine, is a felony. DRIVING WHILE YOUR LICENSE IS SUSPENDED: If your license is suspended or revoked due to a DUI, either through the criminal courts or an administrative proceeding, and you are caught driving while your license is suspended, the minimum penalty is THIRTY (30) days in jail. You also could be ordered to pay a $1,000 fine and lose your driver's license for an additional year, without the opportunity to have a restricted license for driving to and from work. DUI ACCIDENT THAT RESULTS IN DEATH OR SUBSTANTIAL BODILY HARM: If you are convicted of a DUI offense in which an accident occurred that resulted in the death or substantial bodily harm of another person, it is a FELONY conviction, even if it is your first DUI. The penalty is a minimum of TWO (2) years and a maximum of TWENTY (20) years in prison and a fine of not less than TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS ($2,000) nor more than FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS ($5,000) . The consequences of a drunk driving conviction are serious and far-reaching.
