Failure to request a hearing will result in an automatic suspension of your license. Quick action can result in saving your drivers license. The State is also prosecuting you for the crime of DWI. Multiple convictions for DWI will result in felony charges.
• Juan Labadie: A DWI conviction is no small matter. Someone charged with a felony would obviously be very worried. Usually, however, this is not the case when one is charged with a DWI. There are two reasons why this is not an appropriate response. One, DWIs are normally handled in parish or city courts, where prosecutors and even judges, sometimes, try to get people to enter a quick guilty plea to a DWI charge in exchange for a reasonable fine and the ability to clear it from the person's record in due course. Second, and connected to the first reason, while a first and second convictions for DWI are, in fact, misdemeanors, a third offense is a felony. It carries with it a mandatory jail sentence that cannot be suspended. Consequently, often times, a person that has received two DWIs will plead guilty due to promises of leniency. However, what they don't know is that those two misdemeanor convictions are viable for ten years. This means that if within ten years that person gets a third DWI offense, it's a felony. This means jail time. Of course, most people don't get three DWI convictions within ten years. That is the problem of a minority segment of the population. But if you think this means that you don't need to worry about even one DWI conviction, just think of your insurance premiums! A DWI conviction, whether a first or third, will cause you and your record many problems. That is why if it ever happens to you, you should treat it very seriously.
