Does that mean you used weapon of some sort? If so, you can be charged with a felony. How much jail time depends upon the judge at sentencing.

.21... that's almost 3x the legal limit. With this high of a breath test reading you are looking at a mandatory minimum of 2 days in jail. This means that a judge cannot waive this jail time. The judge could also sentence you to more (based upon the facts of your case) as a conviction can carry a jail sentence of up to a year in jail and a $5,000.00 fine. With that high of a breath test, you are going to be required to have an alcohol/drug evaluation and follow any recommended treatment. With that high of a reading... sounds like a possible alcohol substance issue. My advice... hire an attorney as there are additional penalties over and above jail time.
