Legal Answers
Q. Had a DUI accident a 1yr ago, did a BAC test, and got charged with DUI and Vehicular Assault but haven't been convicted
A: You say that you have an attorney so ask that attorney what is happening because he/she will have access to all of the potential evidence. It sounds like there is a blood test that is being processed by the State Tox lab and that takes a long time sometimes so the State is waiting to see what the results are. Good Luck and talk to your attorney or hire a new one
Q. I was arrested for DUI but wasn't driving. I was passenger and am facing charges. What happens now?
A: You have to hire an experienced criminal defense attorney to represent you in this matter. They have to prove you were driving.
Q. What are the specific parameters needed to be considered in physical control of a vehicle?
A: One of the most important issues is where was the car/vehicle parked. Was it safety off the roadway?

You need an experienced criminal defense attorney to represent you. Make sure you have one.
