My friend had a dui 20 years ago. He hasn't been able to land the job he always wanted because of this..is it possible that he can have it removed?

Gary Kollin
Answered by attorney Gary Kollin (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Gary Kollin, P.A.
If it was 20 years ago in Florida, then there was a mandatory adjudication. You cannot seal or expunge the record.   Even a pardon will not allow the sealing.

Am I looking at mandatory jail time on first dui with hitand run

Russell Thomas Kirshy
Answered by attorney Russell Thomas Kirshy (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Russell T. Kirshy Attorney at Law
It sounds like you have been arrested for two misdemeanor offenses.  While I don't believe there is any mandatory jail sentence required for these offenses, you should really speak to an experienced criminal defense attorney as soon as possible.  Some counties may want jail time due to the hit and run.  If this occurred in Lee, Hendry, Charlotte, Desoto, Sarasota or Manatee counties, you can call my office and I will be happy to discuss it with you.

Can I get a DUI in a parked car?

Michael Rutledge Norton
Answered by attorney Michael Rutledge Norton (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Law Offices of Michael Norton
Yes you can get a DUI in a parked car. The DA will have to establish that you were driving using other facts like if the car is registered to you, if you admitted driving, other passengers that could have been driving, if you were in the driver seat, if the keys were in the ignition, the location of the vehicle on the road, etc. They also have to prove you were drunk at the time of driving. Which may be another issue to attach in your case. Contact a local DUI attorney and discuss the matter with them in person. Your prior is going to make the DA less likely to dismiss or reduce your charges.
