Re: Dwi

First, every person accused of DWI faces two proceedings. If you took a chemical test and your reading was at or above 0.080 (lower if you are under 21 years old) or if you refused the test you are subject to the suspension of your drivers' license. You are entitled to a hearing challenging that suspension but have a very short time after your arrest to request that hearing.

There is also the criminal charge. The fine can be as high as $1000.00 and you can get up to 6 months in jail. The only way to get no jail if convicted is to take a defensive driving course, attend a substance abuse program and perform 4 - 8 hour days of community service.

I suggest you contact a lawyer immediately to learn what defenses are available.
