What happens after a year has passed since my DUI?

Michael Rutledge Norton

DUI/DWI lawyer at Law Offices of Michael Norton
Did you have a DMV hearing? Call the DMV. You probably still need to take the first offender program, get Sr-22 insurance and pay a reinstatement fee.

Why does California suspend my license for a DUI I got 8 years ago in Maine?

DUI/DWI lawyer at Steven J. Alpers, A Professional Corporation
The law says if you tell DMV about your intention to move out of the state for over 3 years they will not require you to take the DUI classes. If you were gone for less than 3 years, it sounds like it could be close, that is why they suspended your license. You should have gotten a letter in the mail about the suspension. I would need you to come to my office, but before I see you I would need you to get a license printout at the DMV.

What will happen if my husband was arrested for DUI, but the problem is that he was not driving, is our car in trouble?

Richard B. Jacobson
Answered by attorney Richard B. Jacobson (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Richard B. Jacobson Associates, LLC
Your husband will have a problem in raising that defense, which is that the assertion that the defendant was not the real driver is a ploy tried by lots of people, and it is rarely believed. However, if it is the truth, you could try it. If someone you or your husband is convicted of OWI, there is no direct effect on your ownership of the car, but lots of expenses go up, including insurance (which you must have and keep in effect). If the offense is not a first OWI, then look forward also to the cost of an Ignition Interlock Device, and the charge for an AODA, and for an occupational licence, and probably some others. You might benefit from retaining an experienced lawyer who can sometimes help you get a better result than you could get for yourself. Feel free to call our office for more information. Good Luck.
