Will they charge me with my 2nd DUI or both and how much time can I do or what should I do?

DUI/DWI lawyer at Steven J. Alpers, A Professional Corporation
Some depends how old you are. If you are under 21 .04 is enough to convict. If you are on probation you could be given up to the maximum of 6 months on that case alone.

Do I still have my licence or is it suspended again?

Answered by attorney Philip Daniel Hache
DUI/DWI lawyer at Law Offices of Phil Hache
If you are convicted of a wet reckless (as opposed to a DUI) then there is no independent action against your drivers license assuming the court did not specifically take action against your license when you entered. There may be a separate issue if you were under 21, on probation for another alcohol related offense, or your license was already suspended at the time you picked up the new offense.

How can I take care of my DUI case also if I move to Idaho?

Answered by attorney Terry Alan Nelson (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Nelson & Lawless
You can handle the case no matter where you live, but handling it means coming to court hearings where the case is charged. I can assure you that unless you handle and clear this warrant and case, you will not be getting a nursing license or any other license, with an arrest warrant and criminal charges pending against you. What you mean is that you ignored the case and didn't appear at your court hearings, then got an arrest warrant issued for you. Now, to handle the warrant properly, you must turn yourself in to the issuing court, with or without an attorney. On misdemeanors like DUI, an attorney can appear in court without the defendant being present which is safer and avoids immediately being taken into custody. You'll try to negotiate a recall of the warrant[s] and bail reduction or OR release. You'll try to negotiate a plea bargain on any. Failure to Appear. Charge that caused the warrant. You'll try to negotiate a plea bargain or take to trial the outstanding charge that caused the warrant. Turning yourself in voluntarily will result in a better outcome than being brought in chains to court after arrest on the warrant. That can happen if you come in contact with law enforcement or customs anywhere in the country. While this isn't a 'capital case', you now face potential jail and fines, so handle it right. Effective plea-bargaining, using whatever legal defenses, facts and sympathies there may be, could possibly keep you out of jail/prison, or at least dramatically reduce it, and may enable you to get your probation and programs reinstated. Unless you're competent to effectively represent yourself in court against a professional prosecutor trying to put you in jail, most people hire an attorney who can.
