Anna, TX DWI Law Firms & Lawyers

CA DMV generally accepts no other state's classes. You can contact them and see if you can get a special waiver and approval for classes in the other state. You'll have to do the community service here, unless you return to court and obtain a court ordered change of probation terms to allow it elsewhere. If you decide to hire counsel for that, contact me. You can move out of state unless your sentencing and probation terms specifically prohibit it.

First off, I am so sorry this happened.  It is always difficult for a parent to see their child go through the system, especially when he shows so much promise in completing his education.  Above all, your son's goal should be keeping it off of his permanent record.  The first step is to see if the arrest is a case the government can win.  A good criminal defense lawyer may be able to get the charges dismissed entirely.  If that isn't an option, there is a program called "DWI Pretrial Intervention" by which your son would be supervised for a year and, if he completes everything he is required to complete, the charges will be dismissed at the end.  Not everyone qualifies for this, so it is important to have a lawyer who understands the ins and outs of the program.   All of these options will require an excellent criminal defense/DWI lawyer familiar with the practice where your son is being charged.  Many of us will offer you a free consultation for your sons case, and will give you advice on how to proceed.  Meet with a few lawyers and hire the one you believe is best suited to keep your son's record clean. Good luck, hope I helped! Regards, Cordt Akers Criminal Defense Lawyer

In this day and age, with computer access being what it is, there is a very good chance that your probation officer is going to find out. The fact that you got a "drunk in public" while being on probation for a DUI leads me to believe that you have not yet learned anything, and perhaps you have a substance abuse issue.
