I am facing a Class 6 Felony Child Neglect, DUI and refusal in VA. My history is 2 DUI's that occurred 11 years ago. 2 Years ago, I was reprimanded while parked with my son waiting on a ride due to my medication. The officer gave a me a child neglect charge and DUI and refusal again. All of those charges were dismissed. I now face the charges I listed above and I know the courts will use my past against me. What is the opinion of any forum member of what type of jail time I may get or any other situation that can arise. My attorney states he would like to get the felony reduced to misdemeanor. Any opinions? These charges are in Virginia

Your attorney is the best one to ask this of...really.

This is something you should discuss with your attorney.
