Can a DUI charge be dropped after nine years?

Answered by attorney Joseph Briscoe Dane (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Law Office of Joe Dane
The statute of limitations only has to do with how long the DA has to file charges. Assuming they filed within one year of the incident, they met the statute of limitations. Having said that, they must also make efforts to get you into court. If a warrant was issued years ago, but they made no attempts to serve it and you were easily findable (living in the same place, registering your cars, updating your address with the DMV, had traffic tickets without this warrant popping up, etc.), then your attorney should be looking into a motion to dismiss the case - a Serna motion. Your attorney will know all about this or at least they should.

Can a DUI charge be dropped after nine years?

Criminal Law lawyer at Gregory Casale, Attorney at Law
The only way your case will be dropped is if after 9 years they are unable to produce evidence against you. The arresting officer could have retired or breath test evidence lost, but otherwise your case will be no different.

Can a home be searched without a search warrant?

Answered by attorney Stephen Lewis Freeborn (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Freeborn Law Offices P.S.
In certain instances, yes. Example: if an officer sees a person commit a serious level crime and then while in pursuit, follows the person into the home, then, yes, they can search,, but the scope of the search may be limited. Another example: if someone invites the police into the home and gives them permission. I don't know enough about the facts of your case to know whether or not the search was legal. You should probably retain the services of an attorney who can help you sort through the facts.
