If I missed my court date for a DUI, what would be the consequence?

Richard B. Jacobson
Answered by attorney Richard B. Jacobson (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Richard B. Jacobson Associates, LLC
The court has almost certainly issued a bench warrant for your arrest. Sheriffs don't go out roaming the county seeking to execute these warrants: if you were stopped for a traffic offense, for example, they would discover it and take you in. Sooner or later, though, they would want to clean out the file of warrants, and they'd get you then. Of course, you should retain a lawyer. But lawyered up or not, you should be able to call the Clerk of Court for the county where you were supposed to appear, explain that you missed the court date for [whatever the court appearance was for] and you'd like to come in and take care of it very soon. The clerk will either tell you to show up on a certain day and time, or else have you contact the District Attorney's office to set up a new appearance. Sometimes they insist you come to the courthouse and receive a notice of the new date and time 'in hand,' so you an never deny that you knew the new date. Good Luck.

I was charged with a dui in 1989 in Illinois, never went to court, is there a statue of limitation and how can I take care of it?

First, you could the lawyer and if he is alive, demand that he take whatever action is needed. In all likelihood he would have to contact the prosecutor and/or the Clerk of Court, and arrange a time for you to appear at the hearing which you missed. You run some risk of being jailed, if there is a warrant out for you due to a failure to appear in court.

Can I be arrested for being an intoxicated passenger while my friend got a DUI?

It can happen as once you are out of the car and "in public" you can be deemed intoxicated in public. This is a highly defensible charge with a competent attorney, usually a DUI attorney is best since they have experience with alcohol induced behavior and the defense thereof.
