Montrose, CO DUI and DWAI Law Firms & Lawyers

Without knowing when your trial and verdict occurred, and what actually transpired during the proceedings it is difficult to answer your questions. If there was any improprieties during the trial as to testimony, evidence introduced, court rulings, etc., it is possible that you might be able to appeal the verdict or, at the very least, file a motion for a new trial, which may or may not be granted. However, there are time limits within which you must do this. I strongly suggest that you talk to your original attorney about this or, in the alternative, contact an experienced criminal law attorney for a face-to-face consultation and give him/her all of the facts surrounding your case. He/she would then be in a better position to analyze you case and advise you of your options.

The meth concentration is not a dramatically huge amount since '"Peak concentrations for  methamphetamine range from 615 to 7361 ng/m".  That said, it is possible to have your blood retested by an independent lab.  Given what you said here, sounds like the case just needs to be set for a jury trial and you need to defend yourself at the trial. Of course, you should have a lawyer to do that - so seek out an attorney to help you.

It really depends on the college, but in my experience I have nto seen it result in a person being declined by a college. It is possible they will require an alcohol program by the new student when he gets to college, of course.
