Need some advice. About 6 months ago I was pulled over for a dui. I had no priors, and I was guilty. However, they also hancuffed my wife and she and I spent the night in jail, despite the fact my wife did nothing. Fyi, we were returning from a picnic, and I had a tad to much wine. Also, I wasn't speeding nor driving recklessly.. My wife is a 51 year old grandmother btw. What should I do?

Your crime is:

1. You drank and drove.

2. You didn't let your wife drive

3. Your wife didn't stop you.

It seems to me that they had to put something down on paper when your wife was booked into jail... What was it?

By all means, post your story on a public forum
and request legal advice from total anonymous strangers.
That shows good judgement...
...just like drinking too much wine and driving a car.

An attorney in a well-known law firm in Washington, DC, had pretty much the same thing happen to him and his wife. They got nowhere in the courts.
