Commonly Asked DUI/DWI Questions From Users Near You

This information is not legal advice and is not guaranteed to be correct, complete or up-to-date. It is provided for general informational purposes only. If you need legal advice you should consult a licensed attorney in your area.

Is it true that if a cop does not show up to a traffic hearing, then you win the case?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Michael Thomas Lynch (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Michael T. Lynch
No. Often the Court will call your case and ask you if you want a trial or prefer to resolve the matter that day. At that time you might not even know if the Officer is present. Additionally, while Officers might have missed a ct date in the past, such occurrences are things of the past. Now Officers are often paid OT to show up. If you where a cop where would you rather be, out on the street working, or in an air conditioned courthouse. Don't count on the police not showing.

Is the result of my breath analyzer a ground for dismissal?

Answered by attorney Lawrence Lewis (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Lawrence Lewis, P.C.
No, especially if your driving was poor, and your eyes were bloodshot and you had trouble with the field sobriety evaluations.

If charges on a DUI were dropped, how many years does that stay on your record?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Joseph Briscoe Dane (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Law Office of Joe Dane
If the case was dismissed without a conviction, then it stays on your criminal history as a dismissed case indefinitely unless you take steps to seal and destroy the record if you were factually innocent. If you mean the case has now been "expunged" - that won't erase it from your record. And whatever happens in court doesn't necessarily affect your DMV driving record. If the DMV upheld a suspension of your license, then that will be on there for 10 years. Your question just isn't clear by what you mean by "dropped".
