S4:E3 How Court and DMV is different in a DUI Case in Connecticut

Attorney Teresa DiNardi explains how you wind up with two different cases when arrested for a Connecticut DUI and what that means for you and your license.

Being charged with a Connecticut DUI will trigger two processes against you - the court process and the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) process. The court process will determine if you were driving under the influence and will result in criminal penalties such as fines, a license suspension, jail time, a criminal conviction, and more. The DMV process will determine if the DMV should suspend your license as a result of the acts that you are accused of.

These cases are independent of one another, but it is a good idea to find a Connecticut DUI lawyer who can fight for you in both. To learn more, visit our website and follow Teresa on Facebook.
