Attorney Answers Pinellas County DUI QuestionWhat impact does pleading "no contest" to a DUI have on your record/penalties? My friend has not been convicted of a DUI, only charged in Pinellas County, Florida. There was "probable cause" to stop her and she had a blood alcohol level of 0.192/0.195. She has completed DUI school and her evaluation. She is currently in an 18 week substance abuse program as per the DMV requirements for an offender with a blood alcohol over 0.15. She is considering pleading "no contest" unless there is a chance that she could plea bargain for a lower charge with the prosecutor.
Attorney's Response to DUI Question from Pinellas CountyDUIs are taken quite seriously now. You don't mention if this was her first DUI or what her other penalties were. In many states, even a first DUI will cause you to lose your license for at least 6 months. If she is in a substance abuse program as required by the DMV, she should continue until completion and pay whatever fines have been imposed. With a DUI, it is unlikely that the charge will be lowered by the prosecutor and a "no contest" plea would be appropriate. Contact a DUI lawyer in Pinellas County, Florida for more information.
