Mentone Crime

I was sitting in my car and drank two cans of beers, the cops pulled up, I blew a 0.06 I failed my field test here comes the cuffs while arresting me they find my prescription of ambien in my pocket all of a sudden now Im on my way to the hospital for a blood test. I get the dmv copy of the police report and it only have my bac. which was 0.08 for the dmv. No information on the ambien. Is that a separate report I have to order? If I did take ambien that night and it just happen to show up on blood work how can prosecutor prove you took it that day or night? Or how can they prove you were impaired by it if sitting in the car with no accident no witness no injuries, is there a certain number you have to be above or below on the toxicology like your bac?

If you want your results you need to tequest a DMV hearing within 10 days of the arrest and I would consult with a...

I received a DUI 9/12/2010, however, I recently received an invoice for the amount of $1,040 from Department of California Highway Patrol DUI Cost Recovery Program. I was not aware of these charges against me as they were not mentioned as a possibility, in addition to the charged salary per hour of $78 with total staff hours of 13 and 20 minutes. I called and the delay in sending me the bill was Allende V. The California Highway patrol. My taxes go to the state to cover the California Highway patrol, in addition, I paid the ambulance, court, DUI school, and all other fees towards my DUI. Why am I getting charged for extra as California highway patrols duty is public service.

Did you have an attorney represent you? You should speak to them about these fees. Generally, there is a place on the...

In 2007 I was involved a accident. I was the only one injured and taken to the hospital. I refused to give a B.A.C. test. I do not recall ever receiving a ticket for anything. After totaling my car I had no way to get to work, and no way to survive. As things got worse I came back to California with my kids. I recently tried to get my license here but was told Colorado had a hold on it for a failure to appear on a DUI ticket. I am a single dad on welfare with two boys. I do not have the means to get to Colorado and go to court. Is there a statue of limitations on the ticket, the failure to appear, and the hold on my license? Can I ever get my license back in California?

Once charges are filed (ticket) the statute of limitations has been satisfied. You may have other defenses but that's...

In 2007 I was involved in a accident in Colorado. I was the only one hurt and sent to the hospital. I refused to take a B.A.C. test. I do not recall ever receiving a ticket. Shortly after the accident my kids and I returned to California. No vehicle equaled no work. I recently tried to get my license in California, I was told Colorado had a hold on it for a failure to appear on a DUI ticket. I am a single dad on welfare, I do not have the means to go to Colorado. Is there a statue of limitations for this. If so does it apply for civil cases also. Without a license I can not find a job and welfare sucks.

You need to deal with CO DUI matter in order to get license back. Speak with a CO attorney ASAP to deal with this .

My wife and I had a fight last month. She left our home taking our 3 year old son with her. She went to her sisters in hesperia, got a bottle of vodka right before she got there. She had to wait for her sister to get home from work and started drinking the vodka in her front yard. She became extremely intoxicated and the neighbors noticed her laying unresponsive din the front yard with my son laying next to her so they called paramedics. The police arrived as well and arrested her for DUI and child endangerment. Dcfs also came and removed our son from our home saying I should have known she was intoxicated. How can they charge DUI when she was in the front yard and not in the car drinking? There is no mention in the police report of her being in the car.

Obviously there are issues with a charge of DUI based on these facts. You need to talk to a criminal defense attorney...
