If you are over 21, this is your first offense and you are found guilty, you would generally face a loss of license for 45-90 days, be placed on probation, and be ordered to undergo an alcohol education program. If you are under 21, you will lose your license for a longer period of time. If this is not your first DUI offense, you're in a lot more trouble.

Re: Court Case- DUI

If you meet the criteria, the cort will appoint an attorney to represent you. Three inch heels are a non-starter for any roadside tests; the Manual these tests are based on says they are invalid if administered to a person over Age 60, a person more than 50 pounds overweight, a person with any back or knee injuries, or a person wearing heels higher than TWO inches. So it sounds like you may have a winnable case, however, I would need to know alot more about it before i could give you advice.
