DWI/DUI

Richard Keith Oliver
Answered by attorney Richard Keith Oliver (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at The Law Office of Rick Oliver
If they didn't take your blood it's not all that likely they'll be able to file charges against you. If you were on meds, which caused you to lose control of the vehicle, you can be prosecuted for DWI. However, if there's no video, if there's no test, if there's no blood, then there's not much evidence for them to use to go after you. If you get a summons in the mail ordering you to appear in court, then you'll know they filed on you. The other thing that may happen is they may simply issue a warrant for your arrest. But, like I said, if they didn't at least get a blood test, there's not much they can use, and I wouldn't expect a future charge.

Will an out of state probation officer find out about a drunk in public?

Cynthia Russell Henley
Answered by attorney Cynthia Russell Henley (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Cynthia Henley
Very tough question. First, did you have permission to travel? Probably not so that is a violation. You are also required to report contact with the police to your p.o. so if you don't, that is a violation. You are not supposed to be drinking, so that is a violation.... If you were arrested, then they can find it because you fingerprints and your new criminal history are in a database that all probation officers can access and they generally do just before they turn the file over to the judge for him to sign the order ending probation. you are in deep trouble.
