If it's first offense and he has no other criminal record, a good attorney may be able to get him deffered adjudication. In the past you could get deferred adjudication for a first offense with no priors but that is no longer possible if the crime is a dwi/dui. I know a young man who got it a couple years ago. How, I have no idea but I'm sure $$$ were involved. It's possible he got deferred prosecution, but not deferred adjudication. DUI/DWI are the only misdemeanor on the books for which you cannot receive deferred adjudication. A new law was passed last year that is supposed to have a similar effect, but the state took away deferred adjudication for dwi offenses back in the 1980's.

If it's in Collin County, I bet it's closer to $15-20k before its all said and done. He may also lose his license for 6 months to a year.

Unfortunately, he will not have a good outcome. A first DUI would wreck my life because I would lose my job. I would not be authorized to drive a company vehicle, therefore, I couldn't do my job. I'm sorry to hear about your brother. Some people just learn the hard way, or never learn. GL to him!

He should have used Uber. Word up! $10 or $10,000 and possible time in jail... Easy call! A sober ride will be there in less than 10 mins. Likely under 5 mins really. BUT whats done is done. Hopefully hes ok and he REALLY learned his lesson this time.

ITs going to be a long +/-18month non stop stress, writing lots of checks, court appointments, and attorney meetings. The court system loves DUI's because it makes huge amounts of money to feed the machine.

I had a Houston LEO tell me that most of the folks they arrest for DUI can't afford UBER. They have limited incomes and would rather spend their $ on booze than getting home safely.

Wild. I thought a DUI/DWI is a felony.
First offense is normally a class b misdemeanor. The DWI can be a felony under certain circumstances, like if a child under the age of 15 is in the vehicle.
