Can I get a DUI in a parked car?

Answered by attorney Nathaniel D Shafer
DUI/DWI lawyer at Natty Shafer Law
Yes, it is possible to be convicted. In Utah, you need to be in "actual, physical control" of the vehicle which does not require driving. That being said, you have some good arguments for an acquittal. You should fight the charge and you can avoid a second DUI on your record. Hire a good attorney to help you.

Do I need a lawyer if I wasnt legitimately arrested?

Answered by attorney Charles D. Scott (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at The Law Offices of Charles D. Scott PLLC
You may need a DUI lawyer, even if not arrested (I'm not sure why they didn't arrest you at the time?) because the State Attorney can still file charges once they receive the police incident report. The ten day notice is for an administrative hearing on the license suspension. You should talk with a lawyer about the ten day hearing and do not drive until you have a proper license. Your license is suspended and if you are caught driving it is a criminal offense and a trip to jail.

Is a first time dui offense give you a criminal record?

Michael H. Fayard
Answered by attorney Michael H. Fayard (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Michael Fayard, Attorney at Law
Unfortunately, it really depends on what county you are in when you get a DUI.  In some counties they offer pre-trial diversion (“PTI”).  After a successful completion of PTI, the charge is dismissed by the state and you can potentially have your record sealed/expunged. Certain counties do not offer the PTI for first time DUI offense (such 12th judicial circuit in and for Sarasota, Manatee, and DeSoto).  In places like the 12th Circuit, a first time DUI conviction is considered a criminal traffic case and carries a Misdemeanor conviction.  A standard 1st time DUI is a Second Degree Misdemeanor. A DUI with property damage/personal injury is considered an enhanced DUI. They both, however, are considered criminal traffic and just because you have the enhancement it does not mean that one is criminal and one isn't (all things being equal and you not being entitled to PTI).  Additionally, if the damage or the personal injury is severe, the DUI can be filed as a Felony (the level is based on the severity of the injury).  In any event, if you plea No Contest or Guilty to a DUI then you will most likely have a criminal record.
