Legal Question in DUI Law in California

Dui

My brother just joined the army and now in boot camp. On the day that he's going to leave he was pulled over for drunked driving, he wasnt drunk at all, but he had a little something to drink. The bad thing is that he's 20 year-old, not old enough to drink. I'm taking care of all of his financial and personal things while he's away. He his scheduled for hearing on 03/18/2008. What can I do? Can I just show up on his behalf? do we need to hire an attorney? I need help.

Re: Dui

You can't appear for him, so hire an attorney to seek a continuance of the hearing to a date the enlistee can be in court. Otherwise, there will be a warrant issued.
