Legal Answers
- Q. What is an 'Ext Std Check'? It was listed at .075
- A: The Intoxilyzer 9000 breath test machine has a gas canister attached to it. The gas in the canister is certified to test at .08. The external standard check is when the machine tests the gas to attempt to make sure the machine is working properly. If it tests the gas anywhere from .075 to .085 that is considered to be close enough for government work. The subject test on the same sheet is your boyfriend's test.
- Q. Can I switch companies after ive had the breathalyzer for a year? I have another year but I'm having nothing but issues.
- A: Yes, you can absolutely switch. Find a new company and have them lead you through it.
- Q. Do I need a lawyer for a first offense DUI? Was in my driveway keys on floor but asleep in drivers seat.
- A: The Judge will not require you to have a lawyer for your case. The prosecutor will love it if you handle your case without a lawyer. I absolutely think you should have a lawyer. To convict you the government needs to prove you were driving and were impaired by alcohol you drank before you drove, not after. It seems like they may have some difficulty based on what you wrote.
