Failed to apper in court for DUI arrest


What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CO

Hello, I was arrested for dui and did not apper in court in CO. I have a previous offence and was hoping to get money together for a good lawer but havent been able to. I know that without a lawer I can put myself into more of an issue than I already have and would like some advise. It has been 3 months since the court date now and I need to do something, my license has been suspended. What would you recommend I do? Thanks

contact a lawyer and who can help you arrange for your surrender. You have a warrent for a arrest for not appearing. Turning yourself in is the first step to clearing this matter up for you.

dude. that was not smart. you could have attended court and requested a continuance. now, you just dug yourself an even deeper hole. so now, you have a DUI and a failure to appear. and probably a warrant for your arrest now too.


get an attorney.
