Camanche Crime

I have a friend who had a second DUI in Oregon. They have decided to make this a felony and minimum of 90 days in Jail. He will loose his home, dog and job. He has decided to leave before the sentencing date. He wants to move to IA and start over. What happens if he never returns to Oregon. They Public defender said they will not extradite for a DUI.

The court will issue a bench warrant and if he is ever found within Oregon again he will be arrested. As far as being...

I have two DUI convictions in Iowa and two DUI convictions in Illinois. The last time I had a driver's license it was issued by Iowa. Am I eligible for an Iowa driver's license after the 6 year revocation period (2 years temporary license permitted) or am I banned for life since my last DUI (number four) was an Illinois conviction and Illinois statutes state I am banned for life? I'm not sure how this works since I live on the Iowa/Illinois border and have been convicted in both states.

You should start by contacting the licensing agency in the state in which you want a driver license and see what you...

This is my first DUI and I have no other arrrests of any kind. I have contacted the only 4 local attorneys I can find that handle DUI cases and have called and left messages for them each twice over the last 10 day. My court date is in 2 days and I still haven't been able to schedule even a consultation. My case is not complicated, I am polite and respectful in my messages, and I am able to pay any fee's associates with hiring an attorney. What am i missing? I don't want to face this charge on my own.

There is a good chance the preliminary hearing will not take place because the county attorney's office will file a...

1st offense DUI occurred 6/2010. Conviction date 11/2010. Was placed on informal 24 month probation. Arrested for 2nd offense DUI 7/2012. Have file motion to suppress based on officer had no grounds to pull me over. DA is trying to coerce me into pleading guilty to 2nd offense or I will be subjected to heavy penalty for the probation violation. If my motion to supress is successful can this be used to have the probation violation charge dismissed?

What is the violation upon which the probation revocation is based? If it is something arising out of the 7/12 DUI...

I work in bars as a DJ and a Karaoke host. Is there anyway I can still do this? My probation officer says no. But this is my JOB! I'm supposed to quit my job and still pay my fines? I have no problem with not drinking while Im there, but I still need my job. Any suggestions?

At least at this point, your boss is your PO; if he/she will not permit it under the circumstances then you must comply...

In Jan 2012 I was in a alchol related accendent. We hit another car and FLIPPED downed a 25ft incline. I apparently said I was driving, I had broke the window out with my head also lost control of my bowels. The driver nor the wittness that pulled us from the wreck have not been questioned by a lawer or the police. The county atty wants me to plead guilty to public intox, but carry the plenty of a OWI my lawter now thinks I should take it. I feel I have already paid by the night in jail and the fact that this DWI will be on my driving record for the next 12 years. I have never been in trouble and that night we had just went to dinner after being sick all week and taking meds with alchoal. The county atty knows I was not driving also the magerstat the sheriff office also knows.

If the DOT has not already revoked your driving privileges for a test failure or refusal, then a plea to public...
