How will a DUI affect my future?

Jared Clayton Austin
Answered by attorney Jared Clayton Austin (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Austin Legal Services, PLC
It really depends on what type of career you aspire to. A DUI shouldn't affect your international travels nor do I think it would weigh very heavily on college admission unless maybe it's a religious institution with strict guidelines for admittance. You can wait five years and have it expunged as long as nothing else is on your record. If you plan on getting a job driving a truck or a CDL then it could cause some problems or if your license is suspended or restricted. It shouldn't affect your future that much. Many people have misdemeanors and DUIs and marijuana offenses on their record which cause them very little problems other than the legal costs they have to endure.

Is there other evidence that can be used if a victim pleads the 5thin CSC case?

Thomas J Tomko
Answered by attorney Thomas J Tomko (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Thomas J. Tomko, Attorney at Law
Thank you for your inquiry You present a difficult set of circumstances. the best answer is to discuss all of this with your attorney. The e-mail cannot possibly take into account all of the considerations, and I am sure that there are many facts not provided here In general, the prosecutor could treat the victim as "unavailable" and use the Preliminary Examination transcript of prior sworn testimony, subject to cross examination, as evidence at trial. If the evidence from the Preliminary Exam is strong enough, and if there is other supporting evidence, then the Prosecutor will be hard pressed to consider dropping the case. It depends on many circumstances, but the victim may even put the defendant in a better position if they testify at trial and recant the story. However, this is risky business, and not until all of the facts are evaluated should this be considered. Too many factors could make this a terrible decision. In short, this is one for your attorney to consider, and it will most likely involve a trial if there is no acceptable plea agreement. Dismissal is doubtful I hope that this was helpful.

When someone is being arrested, does the arresting officer have to read that person his rights?

Answered by attorney Gerald Rinehart Lykins (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Lykins Law, PLC
Miranda Rights are necessary only if the person is taken into custody and the law enforcement officer is asking questions about the offense or alleged criminal act. Otherwise, Miranda Rights are unnecessary.
