What is the name of your state? CA
Male/21
well first the story...
I was at a friend's house, and knowing I had to drive a couple people home, I drank a tall can (24 oz) and waited a couple hrs before heading out. I was driving home around 2am & I hit a checkpoint. The officer told me I blew a .14 and off to jail i went. Knowing there was no possible way my BAC was that high, I submitted to a blood test.
Fast forward 3 weeks later and I receive a note from the dmv saying that my case had been "set aside" but not ended and I could go to the DMV to get a new license. If my case had been dismissed, wouldn't I have gotten my old license back instead of having to re-apply for a new one?
Basically, I want to know what exactly having my dui be "set aside" means. Should I not tell everyone I had my DUI dismissed?
Oh yea... dude never asked me to sign my DUI ticket..it just has a circle around the X next to the signature line
does that have any ramifications on the case if they did decide to charge me?
Thanks and God bless,
Andy
