Isn't this double jeopardy?

David B Harrison
Answered by attorney David B Harrison (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Miller & Harrison, LLC
It is not double jeopardy since one is an administrative matter and the other is a judicial matter . It has been challenged in court and lost.  Having a drivers license is a 'privilege' and not a right, so they can attach any rules they like to getting one (for the most part). Sorry.  That said, you might consult with a lawyer to see if there are any other options.

Can my son get his DUI dismissed since he didn't take the breath test?

Probably zero. Refusal is admitted in trial as proof that the person refused the tests because he knew he was under the influence.

some judges like to put a young person in jail for a day or two to make sure he learns the lesson, but most will just put on probation with classes and community service he will lose his license for a year unless a rabbit jumps out of a hat In response to your DUI Post: I am a criminal defense attorney with more than 17 years experience on DUI cases. If you would like to discuss your case, please contact me. Some important information- DMV Issues - If you have been served with a Notice of Revocation, then you have 7 days to request a hearing. Please do that immediately by going to your local DMV office, tell them you got a DUI and you want to request a hearing. They will give you a form. DO NOT REQUEST THE OFFICER. We can do that later if we choose to, but most often it means you will lose. The receipt DMV gives you allows you to drive until the day of the hearing. Request a copy of the Expressed Consent Packet. Evidence Issues - It would be valuable to immediately request all police reports, including all audio and video recordings from dash recorders, lapel recorders and police station recorders from the police agency that arrested you and the prosecution. Include in your written request a statement that you believe the audio and video recordings are material and exculpatory. Make sure you get a copy of your request with the date, signature and name of the person that you give it to. Representation begins when client pays attorney an agreed upon retainer and returns a signed fee agreement.
