What's the worst that can happen if I have to go back to court for not paying my first DUI fine?

Hudson Thomas Bair
Answered by attorney Hudson Thomas Bair (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Kapsack & Bair, LLP
If the court treats the failure to pay like a probation violation, and some counties do, you may be looking at additional jail or community service. It is more likely that you can ask your lawyer to return to court and explain that you are having a hard time coming up with money, many judges will allow you to set up a payment plan. It is usually better to be proactive with these sorts of adjustments to your sentence rather than have the court summon you via bench warrant.

I received a return/receipt for a blood draw regarding a suspicion of ouil case I am currently involved in.

John W. Havins
Answered by attorney John W. Havins (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Havins & Associates, PC
You asked:  I received a return/receipt for a blood draw regarding a suspicion of ouil case I am currently involved in.Additional Details:The return/receipt clearly says, "Directing Physician" under one of the signatures as to who drew the blood. A registered nurse signed the document under this. As fas as I have seen, Physician refers to a doctor of some sort under every definition I have found. Is this enough to get the blood evidence thrown out? It is highly unlikely that a Court would suppress the blood draw for that reason. The government will need to provide the proper foundation to have the blood results admitted as evidence, which would include an appropriate person drawing the blood, a chain of evidence to and from the lab, and an expert doing the analysis.  Stu Shafer

What will happen to me if someone was driving my car and that person got a DUI?

Jared Clayton Austin
Answered by attorney Jared Clayton Austin (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Austin Legal Services, PLC
If the judge orders the car to be impounded, you need to request a show cause hearing so that doesn't happen. You cannot be charged with a crime unless you willfully gave him the keys to your car knowing that he was intoxicated.
