Ventura Law

I was arrested by CHP a few days ago at 3:30am for my second DUI offense. My first offense was 3 months prior. I was pulled over for swerving and I refused to take an on site breathalyzer. I was taken down to the station where I blew a .13 twice and I was arrested and spent 24 hours in jail. Since that night I've moved back home with my parents in Orange County. I'm unemployed at the moment, but I've been making efforts to show the court the remorse I feel for committing my second offense by volunteering at a local youth community center. Also I've been attending AA meetings for the past two months and I've been sober 60 days and I have the chip to prove it. I'm currently enrolled in college and can't afford miss any days. Is there anything I can do to lessen my punishment and avoid jail?

I blew .16% BAC two times in back to back tests during the field test. Later when I was taken to the local Sheriff's office, when tested again I blew .04% then .14% then .10%. The DA offered 3/60 terms for my no contest plea. I accepted. All of my fees are paid, DUI class complete, driver's license reinstated, and all's well in life again except one small concern. I am currently in a prenursing program and will start the nursing program in Spring 2014 which means that I need to have my charge expunged prior to applying in August 2013. Is it reasonable to expect to be able to have the charge expunged to apply for the program by August or should I delay my application another semester or year?
Typically you must wait for probation to expire. Some courts will allow an early filing at 1 1/2 years into probation....
I'm trying to find information on whats happening to my son through the court process. What to expect. He has a list of misc things going on. How much times is typically associated with a 4th dui conviction? It's so hard to find out information, it doesn't seem like Oregon has a public access sight, thats free. In California, we have public access to court docs, minutes, court calender, etc.
Your son needs an Oregon DUI attorney ASAP to defend him and to help explain to him (and you) what to expect. In the...
I recently got cited with a DUI probation violation this month even though I have a court of dismissal form (1203.4) stating I was granted expungement on June 5th, 2012 of my previous DUI matter in March 2010. The cop took my license away and issued me a temporary and my BAC for this probation violation was 0.01. The DMV told me the official court docket was not sufficient to prove that I am off probation and told me I need to ask the court to submit an amended abstract to prove that I am off DUI probation. I was wondering if this abstract is very difficult or even possible to obtain because when I called the court, they firmly told me they don't issue abstracts to the DMV for early termination of DUI probation cases. Is this true?
Usually the DMV is not concerned with the status of your criminal case. The main concern the DMV has is are you driving...

Basically, b/c my parents paid for a lawyer for me, the probation officer thought I could afford these ridiculous extortionist fees by the probation dept. I am unemployed and on food stamps at the moment. There is no way I can pay the "fines" and restitution on top of the probation "fees". Do I have any shot at getting my exorbitant probation fees waived? If any lawyer in Ventura County has dealt with the courts in Ventura regarding probation fee waivers or reductions and your experiences, share your experiences. Thank you to the lawyers who answer.
