You will be charged with Operating While Intoxicated or Operating While Visibly Impaired. Both are misdemeanor offenses carrying a maximum of 93 days in jail and license suspensions of one year and 90 days respectively. There will also be fines, costs, and fees associated with any conviction. What your sentence might be will depend on your judge. Write if you have other questions.

What does it mean in the long run if my son was arrested for DUI, spent the night in jail and told by the judge the next morning that no charges were

Answered by attorney Jason William Savela
DUI/DWI lawyer at The Savela Law Firm, P.C.
That is good news. If they never file charges, be very happy. If you want to check on his record, wait about a week or so and go to the Colorado Bureau of Investigation on-line, you can request a criminal record for less than $10.

What happens when you get a DUI with a high BAC? How?

The penalty depends on whether this is or is not a first offense. Also if anyone was injured. Also your son's personal history and background. And the skill of the lawyer counts as well. In Wisconsin, a first offense OWI without injury is not a criminal offense and carries only a forfeiture, which depending on the Blood Alcohol Content, could be $1,300 or $1,800 or so. He would probably need an occupational license, which has some costs, and he must undergo an Alcohol and Other Drug Evaluation if he wants to drive again, at least in Wisconsin. And finally, his automobile insurance costs will be considerably higher for two or three years assuming no more traffic offenses. I hope this helps. Good Luck.
