I ended up totaling my boyfriends new truck and going to the hospital. I was not in the right state of mind when the cops talked to me and might have jeopardized myself. I had also taken two cbd gummies which is why I was drowsy. 4 years ago I got charged with an owi so this will be my second offense, I’m not sure what to do but I’m panicking, I can’t afford the fines and I’m about to lose everything I’ve worked for. I am seeking counseling and maybe even rehab. I haven’t been charged with anything just yet but they said it will take 72 hours to get the police report together and send me a court date. I’m in sheer panic, even losing my license will cause me my job and any chance I have of getting better.
You definitely need to consult a d.u.i. attorney who appears regularly in the Court you are headed to. Get the police report if it's available--you may have to pay for it. The dui attorney will likely work out a payment plan. Do not say anything about any of this on social media.
Second, you say it was 2.98--you'd be dead. If you mean .0298 you'd barely feel it. If you mean .298 that means 7 drinks in an hour, which means you either chugged from a bottle, drank quick shots, or never have to swallow! So not sure what happened but if you have receipts from wherever you were etc. they may help. But do not ask questions here--understand that any communication on an open forum is not protected by any attorney client privilege. Do not get into the crash with your boyfriend's insurance--tell them that you are consulting an attorney and would ask them to run any request for a statement through the attorney.
You definitely need an attorney to help you with the situation. The information here does not indicate where this happened, which can affect how to approach the case, the cost for legal services, and who might be a good choice of attorneys. I think it would be better if you called me, or some other attorney, rather than asking for attorneys to call you. Most attorneys will discuss fees over the phone, once some of the basic information about the case is known. One thing for sure, you did not blow 2.98. If that were true, you would almost certainly not be alive. It may have been .298, but that would presumably be on a little hand-held breath tester, that is not the official test. It will take at least a few weeks for a blood test result to become available, if there was a blood draw at the hospital that was sent to the State Crime Lab.

presumed father ...more
I am the presumed father asking not the mother. The child sees me but does not want to see me and we are of different cultures. I am Caucasian and he is Native American. The child wants to know his own culture and be part of it. His mother's husband is also Native American and the child is closer to him. Can I continue to force him to see me and how long can I do it? Also sorry did not read past questions.
I was given a summons by a detective for NJS 2C:33-4A...
I had argument with a girl on the computer/facebook..She went to the police..They came to my home and told me just not to contact her anymore..Well she went on facebook and was telling everybody what happened and that she had the police come to my house etc..
When my sister called me to ask me what was going with her, i said you heard about this too ?? I sent the girl a one line sentence text, I said ''you're starting this crap again'' maybe i will go to the police now''
A judge said there was probably cause for issuance of complaint/summons...
I didnt swear at her, threaten her or anything...I basically just wanted to put her on notice that i might go to the police if she didn't stop...
Is that really probable cause for harassment ??
Victim of Perjury
I was in the middle of a chain accident. In police report every other drivers said my vehicle was accelerating , meaning my foot was on the gas pedal after my van was hit. One driver also said my van hit her vehicle multiple times. In the court, everybody changed their story and said my van was not accelerating and that driver said her vehicle was hit only once. This happens after I turned down the plea bargain deal from the prosecutor, showing her evidence that my van was not accelerating. I lost the case because my defense was based on the rebuttal of the claim of acceleration. Do I have a case against the officer issuing the report or other drivers who changed their story. By the way, the other drivers, when talking to insurance agents, said the exactly the same thing as they did to the police officer. Their phone conversations with at least one insurance agent was under oath and recorded.
The question is do I have a case against other drivers by subpoenaing their phone conversation with the insurance agent and court proceedings, and police reports and proving they changed their stories. What might be the cost?
