Legal Question in Criminal Law in Pennsylvania

Take a look at your bail paperwork and read the fine print. Chances are that the DUI arrest will fly under the radar for purposes of the hit-and-run bail, and that nothing will come of it. Technically, however, you're probably in violation of the bail requirements for the hit-and-run case and could be arrested. I'd be very surprised if this occurred, though.

You also haven't been formally charged with DUI yet, most likely. Your blood needs to be sent to a lab for processing, and that can take a few weeks. At that point, charges will be filed by the cops and the District Court will mail you a preliminary hearing date.

If you'd like to discuss these matters in further detail, feel free to contact me offsite. I do travel up to Northampton Co. for cases. Best of luck to you.
