How to get the blood test result report??

What is the name of your state? CA

I was arrested 16/12/07 and have court hearing on 01/30/08. My blood test was done at the police station. I dont know the outcome of the test (my alcohol content). Can somebody tell me how can i get hold on it? Where should i go to get a copy of it? I need this report to decide if my case is strong enough to hire an attorney or should i just represent myself to plea guilty. Please advice ASAP.

Thanks
Savvy

Some counties have an open file policy and will just show you the results when you attend court. If your county does not than you need to file a motion for discovery and request the results. You need to request a hearing date and be prepared to argue for it. Normally this is the stuff your attorney would do.

You were arrested for DUI...which is serious crime. You've been accused as a criminal. Anytime someone is ARRESTED for a crime, they really need an lawyer. Get a lawyer.

get a copy of the arrest report, or go to crimelab

You can get it through discovery (court records) along with your arrest report.
Or you might be able to go through the crime lab that does the analysis, call the arresting agency and find out who does the analysis. That's how it is in San Diego anyway.
