Hello, I live in Colorado but the state of California has a hold on my licence from a dui 5 years old.

This is something that has to be straightened out in California where the DUI apparently is pending.  This is not an unusual situation (so I am not sure why the person at DMV you spoke to said they had not seen it). There is an "Interstate Compact" between states. When a person fails to take care of a ticket in one state, it causes a hold on the persons license in their home state. The only way to remove it is to take care of the matter in California. Hire a lawyer in the county where the DUI ticket is pending and see how they can help you - it is the only way to straighten it out.

If an officer does not charge me, and lets me go, can he still charge me later on?

It is possible that you can be charged at a later date and time for an incident that occurred earlier, however, as time goes on, the likelihood of such a scenario drops.

Can my son get his DUI dismissed since he didn't take the breath test?

Answered by attorney Joseph Briscoe Dane (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Law Office of Joe Dane
He has several issues. First - the DMV can take action against his license unless he sets up a hearing to challenge the suspension. He only has 10 days from the date of arrest to do that. Next - the court case. The prosecution must prove driving under the influence. If one officer let him go, clearly he wasn't obviously intoxicated. Then, a SECOND officer wasn't going to arrest him. He has a good argument against the DUI. There is a second charge of driving with 0.08% or more. I wasn't clear in your question if he refused all tests or just the one in the field (the handheld breathalyzer). This is definitely worth consulting an attorney over.
