You can be charged with DUI in Utah for prescription drugs that you are legally taking, and the charge is just as...
I was in Utah for the weekend and I had gotten pulled over for speeding in the process I told the police that i did have some marijuana with me . I do have a medical card for my condition from California state. And it is illegal to carry the marijuana with me in the state of Utah. I did get tested to see if I was sober and I did not pass even though i was not under the influence the police did not make there decision until they took my blood test, and I had told them that I was not smoking in this state of Utah. I was charged with a possession and a DUI but that was after they took my blood test that they found thc ofcourse they were because I am a regular smoker. But when they took the breathalizer it was a 0.0 nothing. What can I do?
It is always difficult to answer the question "what can I do" in a criminal case since your recollection of the events...
I was pulled over Saturday night around 3 AM for " failure to operate within one lane " on the highway . I told the officer I had had a drink . I completed a couple field sobriety tests and blew into a Breathalyzer . He placed me in handcuffs , put me in the back of his car then said he needed me to take the breath test again . I asked him what I blew the first time and he said he wouldn't tell me unless I agreed to take it again . I told him I didn't want to do anything else without talking to a lawyer first . The officer got a search warrant to take my blood but still said I refused the chemical test . I was not allowed to talk to a lawyer before having blood drawn and being taken to jail . Is there any way a lawyer can save my license from the 18 month revocation at a OLD hearing ?
Yes.
But I have no license for three years and no car. Can I get that portion of my probation taken off easily?
Generally no. Such a requirement is not removed easily, especially in your situation. It's not a matter of money, but...
Is a there a law that forbids this since the minor is not driving and does not qualify for a public intoxication.
Any underaged ingestion of alcohol is a crime, regardless of whether a vehicle is involved.
I have a job coming up for some seasonal work which would require me to be gone for about a month, this way I will be able to afford an attorney.
One option would be to ask for a continuance of the case until you can afford to actually hire an attorney to represent...
I wasn't walking really straight in the street and the officer stopped me and wanted to investigate me. Can I refuse the sobriety tests as I'm not driving and that I were NOT in danger of my self or others? What of he took me to jail? Do I have to submit a blood sample? Can I get convicted? and can the case even end up in court? Can the prosecutor even file charges? I was not in a danger of my self or others, I was just not walking really well that's it
You can always refuse to perform field sobriety tests, whether you are pulled over in a car or stopped walking down...
