Laurium, MI DUI and OWI Law Firms & Lawyers

Your question requires an attorney consultation. It is not a simple question that can be answered on this type of forum. There are many factors that would need to be considered and evaluated. I strongly suggest that you contact an experienced criminal defense attorney for a face-to-face consultation and give him/her all of the facts surrounding your arrest. He/she would then be in a better position to analyze your case and advise you of your options. With regards to your Miranda rights, although an officer should read you your Miranda rights when you are arrested, it is not absolutely necessary as long as you are not questioned about the crime for which you were arrested or were detained during the questioning. Miranda only acts to suppress any statements you gave the police after you are arrested or detained. It does not invalidate an arrest.

Usually, the prosecutor will file an "Order to Show Cause" when you fail to comply with the terms and conditions of your probation. If, this has happened, most likely, the court has issued a warrant for your arrest. Regardless, you have violated the terms of your probation. To be safe, you should complete the class and provide proof of completion to the court. Hope this helps.

What kind of lock? Like a blow machine? Yes, they can put that one, and must put that on for a 2nd DWI. It's called an Interlock and it's mandatory for 2nd DWIs.
