For an FTA charge what are the chances of me going to jail and for how long?

Answered by attorney Philip Daniel Hache
DUI/DWI lawyer at Law Offices of Phil Hache
That can really vary depending on the court you are in. The sooner you handle this matter the better. You may want to consider hiring a private attorney to handle this case as it sounds like you are having some issues with the public defenders office. Based on what you wrote, this is a case you should fight, not just plea to a DUI.

No. If the police don't read you your Miranda rights, they cannot use any statements that you make as evidence against you.

The law in Colorado states that when a second offense for DUI occurs within 5 years of a prior offense, the sentence imposed by the court must be completed in the county jail. If this was your first and second DUI's, then you be facing a minimum of 30 days jail. There are many reasons why that sentence would be harsher though: the short time between the two cases, possible violation of probation or bond and lack of maintaining sobriety. Basically, you could be looking at a very severe sentence from the court. Hiring an experienced criminal defense and DUI attorney is imperative.
