Drinking and Driving Sentencing in Novi
This past week a client of ours was sentenced on a drinking and driving offence. Originally he was charged with Operating While Intoxicated but after negotiations with the prosecuting attorney the charge was dropped to an Operating While Visibly Impaired. Probation recommended an incredibly harsh sentence, which is no surprise at the 52-1 District Court. However, the result after criminal lawyer, Aaron J. Boria spoke with the job was a much different result.
Sentencing on a DUI
If you have been convicted of a first offense drinking and driving in the 52-1 District Court you could be looking at the following penalties:
Two Years on Probation
Up to 93 Days in Jail
Fines and Costs
AA/NA Mandatory Meetings
Daily Drug and Alcohol Testing
Interlock Device Installed on your Vehicle
Inpatient/Outpatient Counseling
Drug and Alcohol Education
Community Service
Jail Work Program
In the case mentioned above, probation recommended 18 months on supervised probation, an interlock device installed on the vehicle with daily alcohol testing, weekly AA meetings, and outpatient counseling. After criminal lawyer, Aaron J. Boria spoke with the judge probation was reduced down to 12-months, no other recommendation was followed by the judge.
The judge ordered random alcohol testing and 35 hours of community service, not a bad result at the 52-1 District Court, a court known for being overly harsh with an overly harsh probation department.
