If you take a judgment satisfied plea for a DWI do you still get a suspension of your license from DPS?

Answered by attorney Mark R. Thiessen
DUI/DWI lawyer at Thiessen Law Firm
If DMV gets it and you have 2 DWI convictions within 5 years then it's a 2 year license suspension with one year hard where you can't get a license from anyone. Can't advise you to break the law, so if you do drive your grandpa, because you have to, hopefully you get a sympathetic police officer.

Can I bond out if I have no other holds?

Answered by attorney Mark R. Thiessen
DUI/DWI lawyer at Thiessen Law Firm
They will let you know if the Judge gave you a bond or not. It's public record. Just call a bail bonds company and see if you have bail set. If not, hire an attorney to get you a bail.

You got bad advice. If there's an outstanding warrant for your arrest for a DWI, it will be there forever, until you get it taken care of. To be clear, a "DUI" in Texas is a ticket issued to people under 21 who are suspected of driving under the influence. "DWI" is the over 21 charge, and is more serious. If all you have outstanding is the DUI ticket, you should just retain a TX attorney to handle it for you. Since you're living out of State now, your attorney may be able to get the warrant lifted, get you on a docket, make an appearance on your behalf, work out a resolution to the case, and all you'd have to do is mail in a check for the fees/court costs (if it can be worked out that way). The worst thing in the world to do would be to ignore it.
