Los Angeles Misdemeanor DUI Court Process
The sentencing is the final step in the court process for a misdemeanor DUI charge. After the verdict has been given by the jury or the judge, the judge will determine your sentence. He or she will take a number of factors into account and will administer the sentence as fairly as possible.
For example, the sentence for a 1st DUI offense may be:
- License suspension for up to 6 months
- Probation for 1 to 5 years
- Fines of up to $1000
- County jail sentence of up to 6 months
From start to finish, the court process for a misdemeanor DUI can be complex and time-consuming. By having a defense lawyer on your side who is experienced and who is dedicated to protecting your rights, you have a chance to receive a not guilty verdict or to have your case dismissed altogether before a
trial even starts.
