Hire an experienced DUI lawyer. In response to your DUI Post: I am a criminal defense attorney with more than 17 years experience on DUI cases. If you would like to discuss your case, please contact me. Some important information- DMV Issues - 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. Request a copy of the Expressed Consent Packet. Evidence Issues - It would be valuable to immediately request all police reports, including all audio and video recordings from dash recorders, lapel recorders and police station recorders from the police agency that arrested you and the prosecution. Include in your written request a statement that you believe the audio and video recordings are ?material and exculpatory.? Make sure you get a copy of your request with the date, signature and name of the person that you give it to. Representation begins when client pays attorney an agreed upon retainer and returns a signed fee agreement.

Would a dui violate someone who is on parole. This occurred in Texas. This would be their 6th offense.

It depends on the PO, usually. Also, it depends on what the person is on parole for. If they're on parole for a felony DWI, my guess is a new DWI allegation would certainly violate them. It would probably be a big issue if he/she is on parole for a drug case, since the two are closely related. The biggest thing he/she needs to worry about at this point, is hiring the very best attorney they can to fight the DWI. If they win, they'll have a stronger argument before the Board of Pardons and Parole.
