I received a DUI, first one ever, and my parole officer is imposing all kinds of rules on me that I feel are against my civil rights. She is telling me who I can have as friends and who I can hang out with. I do not go to bars, and I have not had a drop of alcohol since my arrest in January. I have completed all my required community service, classes, and am attending weekly AA meetings. I have interlockens on both my van and my motorcycle. Today she told me I needed to have the one on my bike removed and I could no longer ride. I have abided by all other rules, but these two seem to be a bit harsh and illegal.
This sounds pretty unreasonable, even for a PO! Maybe she is being affected by leftover radiation in Los Alamos from...
I was recently arrested for 2nd DUI, open container, and careless driving. I hired an attorney and at the first pre-trial conference my case was dismissed with out prejudice because the DA failed to produce discovery with in 30 days. Four days after the case was dismissed, the DA refilled. My case is now again pending but my attorney wants to charge me again for representation. I do not know what to do, if I should rehire him or go with a pd for this is a huge financial burden. Is it also possible that the case could get dismissed again then refilled a second time?
Immediately call and hire an attorney that practices in that county.
Probable cause was when i almost hit a state trooper head on and also the county deputy head on whom pulled me over. Do i have any chance through discovery and investigation (i.e. was cop a certified and trained for DWI ?? he didn't ask me if i wanted a witness during SFST that wasn,t recoreded, With the above facts in the question box do i have anty chance to fight this ??
There is always a chance but odds would not be in your favor. Hire an attorney.

No, New Mexico MVD requires that you have an interlock license for 6 months before they will issue an unrestricted one....
I have a DWI first offense and will be off probation a month later than the class for VIA begins . Is there a difference between supervised and unsupervised probation in this case ? What about if I am off probation completely ? I am very worried I have been paying for my crime for a year and a half in many ways ( including loosing the license I already had and still owe $ 40 , 000 for the schooling , and my previous employment , and more ) I agree paying for my mistakes but this is my chance to get out of ever ( hopefully ) needing government assistance . Is there anything I can do ?
What is your question?
