Unfortuneately, it will only be a percentage of what the judge hands down. It depends on the state in which you were picked up. Each state has their own laws, it won't go according to the state you reside, unless thats the state you were picked up in. Hopefully, whoever got this dui, will learn from their mistake, and not take a chance on hurting anyone else. What someone does to themselves, their business, when they get in a car, after drinking, it becomes public business. I know, you didn't ask for this much input, but like child molesters, I have absolutely no tolerance for irresponsible people who drink and drive, not in todays world.

2nd degree felonies carry 2-20 years plus up to $10,000 fine. As about the time in county jail...if he can sit there for a while awaiting trial, after sentencing it depends on TDCJ as to when he gets assigned to go. Most county jails have working agreement with TDCJ as TDCJ is almost full. Meaning they can serve some of the time in county. typical sentence for this could be between 10 probation or 5 years TDCJ, depending on court

It all depends on what type of conviction (misdemeanor or felony), in what court (state or federal), and how much time has passed since you were convicted (a certain date) and completed all of the Court's orders (most likely a different date), for example, completed probation, paying all fines or restitution.\n\nSome more information please.

Probably 1 -2 years probation ...maybe pay some fines, or do community service for a certain number  of hours

If this was not his first offense, I would assume he has a probation/parole officer.  If so, have him contact his PO and turn himself in.  If it was a first time offense, call the DA and have him 'turn himself in'--he will probably be arrested on the warrant, but could be out on bail in a few hours.  Taking the first step by voluntarily surrendering will be much better for him in the eyes of a judge than being stopped for a minor traffic violation and arrested on the warrant because he got 'caught'.  Added plus is that if he is guilty--turning himself in may influence the judge's decision at sentencing.

If you have a license it will be gone for a yr if its ur first dui offence and if you pled guilty you might get fined but maybe driving school to get ur license back after ur yr is up nothing major tho as long as this is ur first dui offense if its like ur 3rd dui u prolly go to jail

You would have to read the DUI statute for your state. Most statutes specify that in order for the stiffer penalties to be assessed, the suspect has to be convicted of DUI, not just arrested for it. \n\nOn a side note: What the hell are you doing with someone like that. He obviously didn't learn the first time and now wants to get pulled through the wind wing for refusing to get out of the car. Get a better BF and have a better life.

I'm sure there's a minimum and maximum sentence... and those would likely be dependant on the laws of the state.  Most states are probably similar, but you should consult with the laws of the state you are in.  \n\nIn actuality, the number of years you would get if convicted would be determined by the judge at sentencing time.  It would be no more than the maximum sentence.. unless there were more charges or multiple counts.

Depending on the amount and the circumstances, jail is in order. How long a sentence would depend on above, could be 20 to life.

it all depends on the charge and the branch of service, you can have a summary court martial for going UA (unauthorized abscense) to drugs or murder. The time you can serve well 30 yrs to life, it all depends on the charge

That's a real shame.  You poor, poor, poor dumb ass alcoholic.  Ever consider calling a cab?  Worse yet is the fact that the state you live in allowed you to get 5 DUIs.  Where I'm from you will most times serve after your second.  The simple fact of the matter is that being as old as you are... it's already too late for you.  You will never change ever.  You have chosen to spend your life in a bottle chasing wiener half your age and half the time probably getting paid for it.  You say you have a good lawyer, so why post your question here?  In your reality is there going to be a magic answer on the Internet that is going to keep you out of jail?  I'm half your age and even I know that. Jeez.... I really hope you haven't procreated because if you have I'll bet they're proud of you now.  I'll bet you're proud of yourself.  Not once did you even mention being ashamed of yourself or consider what could have happened had you wrecked.  The best thing you can do for yourself is GO TO JAIL.  At least there you can't drink.  Maybe get yourself a little lesbian lover and spend your time planting flowers instead of graves.

That depends entirely on the facts of the case and the penalty is at the discretion of a judge.\n\nReckless driving, for example won't get you as much time as you would if it were a DUI related manslaughter.

The imprisonment is about 6 months to 12 years depending upon the evidence presented and the defense adopted by your friend's husband.  The crime commited is already a grave offense because it involves fraud.

Chances are very good if he's already on probation.  It's up to the individual judge, but most cases I've heard of like this did get jail time.

One year most likely.  The punishment is enforced more stringently when it is due to a probation/parole violation.  It's meant to set an example/send a message when one exhibits disregard for the conditions and terms established by the court.  Violations are not treated favorably!  Sorry to be the bearer of bad news by the way.  Hope for the best but plan and expect the worst!  Good luck

Well the question cannot really be answered without knowing what the person involved was sentenced for.  Different crimes have different good time credit provisions.\n\nBut, assuming half time credits and assuming that none are lost for misbehaving in prison, the easiest way to figure it out (although will only give a ballpark estimate) is to take the 2 years, subtract the total credits mentioned above, then divide by 2.\nBall park estimate with above assumptions on credits and behavior would then be about 8 months more time to serve...
