Legal Question in DUI Law in California

DUI Haven't rec'd any info

I got a DUI on July 31st of this year and I haven't heard anything from the courts. I was released from custody to the hospital and They took my drivers liscence From me. They gave me a notice that as of 30 days from the accident my drivers liscence will be suspended for 1 year. I am 20 years old and do not want to go to jail because of a mistake on either my part or the courts part. Thank you for your insight!

Re: DUI Haven't rec'd any info

These things do not go away. You should have been arraigned within those 30 days during which you had a temporary license.

Perhaps the notice of arraignment went to the wrong address, which means you never received it and never went to court. If so, you likely have a failure to appear on your record and a bench warrant outstanding.

I recommend you visit a local attorney to investigate what's going on with your case.

Good luck.
