What does that mean? And if I get another one is it my 2nd or 3rd?
Having two DUI's pending at the same time could have resulted in a DUI 1st and a DUI 2nd if convicted of both.
In Ballinger v. Com., the Kentucky Supreme Court held that KRS 189A.010(5) does not require a "conviction to offense sequence" for enhancement. Ballinger held that any conviction, without respect to the date of the occurrence, can be used to enhance if the prior conviction existed before a plea on any pending DUI. This case overrules Com. v. Beard, which held that Kentucky was a conviction to offense state for enhancement.
But, as you have probably been told - a new offense within a 10-year period will be considered a 3rd offense even though you never were punished as a 2nd offender.
If you get another one within 10 years it is your third offense.
Retail Fraud First Offense, MI
I was caught at Kohls and apprehended for around 100 dollars worth of merchandise. I have an absolutely spotless record, i have an excellent full time job, full time student, never done ANYTHING before, this was an awful mistake... I cooperated fully with the LP and with the cop. I was given a misdemeanor, third degree citation or whatever it is called.... i was told to call the court within ten days and they'll set up an appt. I will be pleading either no contest or guilty( told by the cop there isnt really a difference...) do you think with a clean record and being a first offense i will get a slightly lesser sentencing? should i get an attorney, im not going to fight the charge, i would just like to know how to go about getting just a fine..... thanks!
Can I cut out my lunch break.
I am a single mom with two small children 1 and 2 yrs of age so needless to say my work schedule 830 -530 makes it so I am dropping them off at 745 picking them up at 615. My question is that I would like to skip my lunch to have the opportunity to pick up my girls sooner and skip traffic- I was told that it was illegal to have me skip my hour of unpaid lunch. I have heard (hearsay) that there is no law mandating an obligated lunch so I was hoping to have some statute in writing I could use to my advantage in negotiating my contract.
In Ohio, can a payroll check be delayed due to an incomplete timesheet or a missing timesheet?
