Legal Question in DUI Law in California

accused of drunk driving but didn't follow through with the sentencing

Seven years ago I got a DUI in the state of California. I

was told to pay a fine of $1,500, do community service,

and to take AA classess. I ended up moving away for

several years and didn't do anything I was asked to do.

I haven't had a drivers liscence sence then and have

realised that I messed up, and would like to take care

of it. What do you think I should do? Get a lawyer?

What do you think my punishment will be?
