The gun case is largely dependent upon what happens with the DWI. If you have a CHL, then the only way to beat the gun case is to beat the DWI.  The strength of the DWI depends on (a) how you looked on the cops dashcam video (if there was one); (b) the station video (if there was one); (c) whether there was a breath test or a blood test; and (d) what you told the officer during the course of his/her investigation and arrest. If you look normal and sound normal on the videos, and there is no breath or blood tests, you should not plea guilty to it, in my opinion.  Your options with respect to the DWI is to plead guilty to it, or set it for trial. You can't get deferred probation in Texas on an alcohol case, so that is why the options are more limited than for some other type of cases. Often, the only way to avoid a conviction for a DWI charge is to take it to trial, and to win.

How can I have my DUI drop to a reckless opp.?

Jared Clayton Austin
Answered by attorney Jared Clayton Austin (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Austin Legal Services, PLC
At .17 you would be considered "super drunk" and many prosecutor's offices have a policy against lowering the charge, especially to a non-alcohol related offense like reckless driving. That doesn't mean that it can't be done, but it's an uphill battle. There may be issues with the stop or how your blood alcohol content was determined. Only an experienced DUI attorney with a trained eye would be able to tell you for certain. A good DUI attorney is a great investment. This is serious and can have long-lasting effects so I would consult with a DUI attorney in your area as soon as possible.
