Jefferson OWI/Jefferson DUI
If you have been arrested for OWI (operating while intoxicated) or DUI (driving while under the influence) in Jefferson, you need to act quickly. If you submitted to a breath test, you only have 10 days from the date of your arrest to request an administrative review hearing before the Department of Transportation. The administrative review hearing is completely separate from the court process, but affects your ability to drive almost immediately.
Where you were arrested is critical to understanding the punishment you are facing, as each county (and Jefferson is in Jefferson County) has its own OWI/DUI guidelines. These guidelines advise judges on how to sentence people convicted of DUI or OWI. The most important factor at sentencing is your blood alcohol content. Jefferson’s DUI/OWI guidelines can be found online at http://www.wisbar.org/Directories/CourtRules/OWI%20Guidelines/Third%20Judicial%20District%20-%20OAWI%20Sentencing%20Guidelines.pdf.
