If I had blood drawn and the results read .08 alcohol in my system, was I legally intoxicated?

In Colorado, DUI starts at 0.08 BAC. But, there is a lesser included charge of DWAI from 0.05-0.079. You may suffer DMV drivers license consequences if BAC is 0.08 or above. In response to your DUI Post: I am a criminal defense attorney with more than 15 years experience on DUI cases. Some important information: If you have been served with a Notice of Revocation, then you have 7 days to request a hearing. Please do that immediately by going to your local DMV office, tell them you got a DUI and you want to request a hearing. They will give you a form.

CAN he? Of course, he did, didn't he? When arrested for DUI, whether alcohol or drugs, then upon release from jail or booking the defendant is given documents that include a notice that you have only ten days to file a request with DMV for a hearing on an appeal of the automatic suspension of your license imposed by DMV upon your arrest. That is separate and runs consecutively with any suspension that may be imposed by the DMV, or the court upon conviction. Contact DMV and do so, timely if you think you have grounds for appeal, then appear at the scheduled DMV appeal hearing and present any supporting evidence and testimony.

You can be charged with a felony drug possession. Often this will be reduced to a non-felony. The DUI is not awful, but depends on priors and any other aggravators. Lets discuss your case. Meanwhile, request a hearing from DMV within 7 days to challenge losing your license. In response to your DUI Questions: I am a criminal defense attorney that focuses on DUI cases. If you would like to discuss your case, please contact me. Some important information- If you have been served with a Notice of Revocation, then you have 7 days to request a hearing. Please do that immediately by going to your local DMV office, tell them you got a DUI and you want to request a hearing. They will give you a form. DO NOT REQUEST THE OFFICER. We can do that later if we choose to, but most often it means you will lose. The receipt DMV gives you allows you to drive until the day of the hearing. Representation begins when client pays attorney an agreed upon retainer and returns a signed fee agreement.
