Illegal sentence

Richard Francis Sweeney
Answered by attorney Richard Francis Sweeney (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Richard F. Sweeney, Attorney at Law
The maximum jail time for a DWI misdemeanor is 1 year. If he has been in jail on this case only and no other case, he should be freed. You might try contacting the local district attorney and ask them to do something about it; you might try to send a letter to the Court in which he was sentenced as well.

Is there any statute of limitations for a DUI or can they wait 4 years to charge you with a DUI?

Jared Clayton Austin
Answered by attorney Jared Clayton Austin (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Austin Legal Services, PLC
They have six years to charge you from the date of the incident. The date that the incident occurs is what governs the time the clock starts ticking. They probably filed charges against you shortly after it happened in 2009. Just because you managed to stay under the radar for a while will not change the validity of the charge provided they filed charges in time. Of course, time can have some advantages such as the losing or misplacing of evidence, officers no longer there to testify, etc. Seek counsel from an attorney before proceeding.

Am I able to view the video of my DUI before consulting a lawyer?

Ask for the information, if it exists, after you are charged. They should give it to you or at least allow you to view it. The cost of representation is cheap, compared to the cost which will be visited on you if somehow your defense is botched.
