Law Office of Thomas F. Mueller | Thomas Mueller
His probation will be 3 years. He won't be able to drive in California for 4 months. It is not certain that your state will mirror that suspension. The Cal. DMV will send out an affidavit of nonresidency in 6 months to the address he gave the police. He should be sure to sign it and send it back. That will restore his privilege to drive in Cal.

Generally probation for a DUI is 3 years but it is usually NOT formal probation. You do not need to report to a probation officer monthly. You are on what is called court probation - so long as you do not do anything to violate the terms you are fine.

Typically, a first time DUI results in 3 to 5 years of probation. However, there is no probation officer to report to, but he must engage in absolutely no drinking and driving during that time period.

That depends. If he was convicted already, he should already know what the probation period is. The probation time length for a first offense 23152 DUI is 3-5 years. If convicted, 6 month drivers license suspension in California for a first offense DUI (which would likely be transferred to the state of his license). In CA, a first time offender can get a work restricted license after 1 month (to drive for work, and alcohol classes. Also, depending on the jurisdiction he received the DUI, he may have to get an interlock device if convicted (5 months). Have your brother contact a DUI attorney in the area of his charge. If it's in southern California, he can call me or contact me through my website.
