Frequently Asked Questions
What are the penalties for a first DUI in California?
For a first DUI in California, penalties typically include 3 to 5 years of informal probation, fines up to $1,000 plus penalty assessments, a 6-month license suspension, and possible jail time of 48 hours to 6 months. You may also be required to install an ignition interlock device and complete a DUI education program.
How long do I have to challenge a DUI charge in Merced?
You have only 10 days from the date of your arrest to request a DMV hearing to challenge an automatic license suspension. For the criminal case, you must appear at your first court date, which is usually within a few weeks. Missing these deadlines can result in automatic penalties.
Can a DUI attorney help reduce my charges in California?
Yes, a DUI attorney can challenge the evidence, such as the accuracy of a breathalyzer or field sobriety test. They may negotiate with the prosecutor for a reduction to a lesser charge like wet reckless driving. An attorney can also argue for alternative sentencing options like community service instead of jail.
