Bench warrant issued. Hire a lawyer. Have him appear and recall the bench warrant. Should be no consequences.

Do they take away the four credits from the 16-day sentence, which would equal 12 then divide the 12 days in half, which would equal 6?

You get 8 days if you actually served 4 days in jail.? So the total should be an actual 16 days.? If the original 4 days was 2 actual and 2 good time then you would have 6 actual days to serve.

You SAID he got a DUI. If so, then thats what he gets to defend against. DUI is Driving Under the Influence, impaired driving, not drunk, regardless of what and how much he had taken or what the BA level was. Youll learn the actual charge[s] filed against you when you appear for arraignment at your first court hearing. The DA can amend at any time prior to trial if he feels he can prove additional or different charges. Of course you can fight it. When arrested or charged with any crime, the proper questions are, can any evidence obtained in a search or confession be used against you, and can you be convicted, and what can you do? Blood test results can be challenged if appropriate. Raise all possible defenses with whatever admissible and credible witnesses, evidence and facts are available for legal arguments, for evidence suppression or other motions, or at trial. Effective plea-bargaining, using those defenses, could possibly keep you out of jail, or at least dramatically reduce it. If you don't know how to do these things effectively, then hire an attorney that does, who will try to get a dismissal, diversion, reduction or other decent outcome through plea bargain, or take it to trial if appropriate. If serious about hiring counsel to help you in this, and if this is in SoCal courts, feel free to contact me.
