Can an blood test show more alcohol than a breathalyzer test?

Mark Corwin Bruce
Answered by attorney Mark Corwin Bruce (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Law Office M. C. Bruce
This is called the "rising blood alcohol defense". If you drank recent before the stop, your blood is still processing the alcohol. So at the time of driving, you were at an .06. But by the time they took you to have blood drawn, it rose. This is a defense, believe it or not. Get a lawyer to have it run for you. Don't do this on your own.

Can a police officer force you to take a breathalyzer, and forcibly draw a person's blood?

Answered by attorney Tristan Nicolas Legrande
DUI/DWI lawyer at LeGrande Law
If you do not consent to a blood sample, if consent is refused, the officer can apply for a search warrant to obtain a blood sample. They're going to get a sample, even if you do not consent, they just need to get a warrant first.

Can I get a temporary license until my court date

Richard Keith Oliver
Answered by attorney Richard Keith Oliver (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at The Law Office of Rick Oliver
If you were arrested and charged with DWI within the last 15 days, you need to contact a DWI attorney immediately. The ALR suspension does not take effect until after the expiration of 40 days after the arrest. So, if you are within that window, your privilege to drive is not yet suspended. If you are still inside the 15 day window, your attorney can request an ALR hearing to fight to prevent the suspension. The request will toll the suspension period.
