Your license can be suspended 2 ways from a DWI arrest: 1) Administrative License Revocation (ALR)- If you are arrested for DWI and refuse a breath or blood test, your license can be suspended 6 months; if you voluntarily provide a sample, it can be suspended for 90 days. You can request a hearing on the license revocation within 15 days of arrest or it is waived. If no hearing is requested, the suspension starts 45 days after arrest. If you request a hearing, your license may not get suspended - you would need a lawyer for this.   2) DWI conviction- 1st offense DWI conviction your license can be suspended from 90 days to 1-year.   If your license is suspended, you can obtain a license to drive during the suspension (occupational drivers license).

A judge must make a finding that their is sufficient probable cause to support an arrest. If the judge finds their was insufficient evidence to support probable cause the charges will probably be dismissed.

Can I pay my fine for dwi and avoid jail time?

Tristan Nicolas Legrande
Answered by attorney Tristan Nicolas Legrande
DUI/DWI lawyer at LeGrande Law
Without knowin additional details regarding your case, the county, and court you are in, it is impossible to predict. However, it is not a good idea to just pay the fine for a DWI offense without having a lawyer review the evidence, facts and circumstances of your case. You may have defenses. You may be able to keep it off of your record completely - with no prior criminal history, or even no prior DWI's, you may have options available to you as a first time offender.   Even a conviction for a DWI can have lifelong consequences. Hire a lawyer you trust to defend your case. If you cannot afford a lawyer, consult with your appointed attorney before you make a decision.  Good luck.
