Oaklyn Crime

My 1st DWI was in 1999, my 2nd was in June of 2009, my 3rd was in December of 2009. I already did 6 months in jail for the 3rd so everyhing is done with all of them. I am going to try and re-open the 2nd for the 20 minute observation. I know I can win but the lawyer I had at the time did not try to fight it. The officer that did the breath test came in the room 3 mins. after the arresting officer left only to give the test. He was there maybe 10 mins. The times are in the Discovery. So what would happen if I won? Thank You

In Wisconsin, the current third would count as a second offense. However, I wouldn't hold my breath getting the...

The DUI was expunged as soon as possible , and I am applying for licensor as an RN in NJ . Must I disclose this prior DUI ? The NJ NOB says yes , but doesn't mention expunger , of course .

I do not know. A DWI is not a crime in NJ and unless they specifically ask about serious motor vehicle charges or DWIs...

someone called me today and told me they got either a dui or dwi, they were drinking and admitted to the cop that they were doing shots of rum, so they asked the cop what they should do for they were nervous and the cop said don't take the test, and they took person to the station and enpounded the car, they got the car back, what i don't understand is how will the law or can the law charge that person if they didn't take the test after the officier told them not to, now they have to go to court, find it odd that they would even have to go if they didn't take breathilizer, I feel that the officier would get in trouble for not taking one...any info would be appreciated

The officer can't tell someone not to take the test, but its unlikely the report will say that, which means it is his...

Hi, I recently received a DUI in PA, but have a NJ license. The judge took the License of others convicted who had a PA license, but she never took my NJ license. The question is am I aloud to drive still since she never took the license? I have not received any paper work or anything. I'm on the ARD program.

While I don't practice in NJ, you are presumably allowed to drive in NJ on a valid NJ license until NJ tells you...

I recieved my first DWI in New Jersey six years ago. Recently i was arrested for DWI in PA. My understanding is that the ARD program is available for those without prior convictions. Because in NJ, 1st DWI is a traffic offense, will I still be eligible for the ARD program?

Is it a traffic offense, or a criminal traffic offense as in most states?

I had some problems back in 2005 which I plead guilty to two Dui's and a disorderly conduct in 2006, but they have other things on my record that I never plead to, I did state jail time for the Dui"s and have it on my sentence status summary from the DOC that these were the only charges on the sheet and there were no active detainers or no deleted detainers, can I write the court and ask them to fix this mistake, b/c it is hurting my chances of getting a better job, or will I have to find a lawyer to do this for me, let me remind you my financial stability is not great at this time and do not even know if I could afford a lawyer to do this for me and if I can not could you recommend someone to help me with this. I also live in New Jersey now will that hurt chances of finding help?

You need to speak to a PA. attorney. What can or cannot be expunged depends on each State's laws. In NJ DWIs are not...

first off i was driving my friends car (which he was intoxicated at the time) n his License was suspended ... so the cops ran the tags when they was behind me n pulled us over , they suspected drinking going on by the smell of liquor in the car (which he had an open bottle in there as well) so they had me get out to do the dui field sobriety tests which the cops claim i failed so they arrested me n took me to the station to take the breathalyzer test n passed .04 let me go .. which i have to appear for court but gave me 4 tickets for driving while under the influence of liquor or drugs, obstruction of winshield for vision,open container of alcohol , and reckless driving

It is my opinion that any time you are facing potential loss of license and other "consequences of magnitude" you...
