Can I fight my charges if the blood results weren't in by my first court day

David B Harrison
Answered by attorney David B Harrison (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Miller & Harrison, LLC
Blood tests not being available by the first court date is not unusual.  The Court will merely keep resetting the case until the blood test results are provided.  Some courts do not allow you to enter a 'not guilty' plea at the first court date. That is because they have to get your case to a trial within 6 months of when you plead not guilty. That said, if you are in a county that does allow the not guilty plea to be entered at the first court date, then the trial must be within 6 motnhs of that date unless you 'waive speedy trial'.  So it gives you some leverage.

Will my court summons be tossed out if my last name changed?

David B Harrison
Answered by attorney David B Harrison (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Miller & Harrison, LLC
The fact your last name is now different, it will not have any impact on the case. It makes sense to consult a lawyer to get an idea of what your options are, and how the case is likely to go.  If your license was taken from you, and you were given a "Notice of Revocation", you need to request a DMV hearing on the revocation of your license within 7 days of getting this notice.
