Would a dui violate someone who is on parole. This occurred in Texas. This would be their 6th offense.

It depends on the PO, usually. Also, it depends on what the person is on parole for. If they're on parole for a felony DWI, my guess is a new DWI allegation would certainly violate them. It would probably be a big issue if he/she is on parole for a drug case, since the two are closely related. The biggest thing he/she needs to worry about at this point, is hiring the very best attorney they can to fight the DWI. If they win, they'll have a stronger argument before the Board of Pardons and Parole.

Do I have a right to a speedy trial?

Richard Keith Oliver
Answered by attorney Richard Keith Oliver (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at The Law Office of Rick Oliver
Everyone has a right to a speedy trial. However, it takes more than just the passage of 4 months to prove that your right to a speedy trial has been violated. There are several factors that courts would consider in making that determination. If you have an attorney you should contact him/her to find out where the case is at, procedurally. If you don't have an attorney you should seriously consider hiring one. I specialize in DWI defense, and can tell you there are myriad issues to consider when handling a client's DWI case. If the case can be beat, it's worth the money to find out.

I have a scheduled court date for this week for a class B misdemeanor, on the same day my job is requiring me to go out of town?

You can call the court and see if they will permit you to re-schedule it (unlikely, but you can try). Having work is not an excuse the Judge will usually accept to miss a court appearance. If you have hired an attorney, you can check with your attorney of record to see if your specific court will permit you to waive your appearance. If it is the first appearance since being charged (the arraignment) it cannot typically be waived.
