Agressive Defense for DUI Charges

Marietta DUI Lawyer

If you are stopped by a law enforcement officer and are arrested for DUI, he may have submitted a DPS form 1205 to the Department of Drivers Services to suspend your driver’s license, if four conditions are met:

1. You refuse to take the state administered breath or blood test.
2. If over 21 years of age, you registered .08 or more on the state administered breath test.
3. If you are under 21 years of age, you registered .02 or more on the state administered breath test.
4. If you are operating a commercial vehicle and registered .04 or more on the state administered breath test.

If any of these conditions occur, the officer will take your driver’s license and forward it to the Department of Drivers Service to be suspended. You must file a hearing in 30 calendar days.

You are given at the time of your arrest a copy of the DPS form 1205, which allows you a 45 day temporary driving permit. You then must file for a hearing within 30 calendar days of your arrest. This request must be accompanied by a $150.00 fee. If this is done your suspension will not go into effect until you have your hearing at an Administrative License suspension hearing.
