How long does it take for a DUI to show up on a background check?

DUI/DWI lawyer at Musilli Brennan Associates, PLLC
It will not be long, as soon as it is abstracted with the state or entered into the court system computers. You are playing with fire, if it shows up and you have not disclosed it you WILL BE FIRED. Honesty remains the best policy, in never hurts as much at the outset as when you get caught.

Is it legal if I'm pulled over and arrested for DWI without probable cause?

Answered by attorney Philip Daniel Hache
DUI/DWI lawyer at Law Offices of Phil Hache
The officer does need probable cause to pull you over. It can potentially be challenged at a suppression motion hearing. In California, if the officer has reasonable suspicion to believe you are driving under the influence, then there is a implied consent law for you to perform and complete a chemical test upon request, or else be charged with an enhancement refusal charge on top on the DUI.

How can a person transfer DUI classes to another state without actually transferring the case?

DUI/DWI lawyer at Gregory Casale, Attorney at Law
The classes can be taken in another state so long as the program she wants to transfer to is similar in duration to the classes she is assigned to. Either on her own or with the assistance of her current probation officer she should look at the programs that the proposed state uses for 1st offense OUI classes. Get a brochure or something that details the classes as to duration and content and present that to her current probation officer. She will need approval of the court or probation to do this but it should not be a problem. I have had many clients that were charged in MA but did the 1st offender program in another state. She could also contact the lawyer who handled the OUI for her to assist. It shouldn't take more than a phone call or two by the lawyer to help her out.
