Will I be charged with a DUI after the fact?

Gregory Casale
Answered by attorney Gregory Casale (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Gregory Casale, Attorney at Law
There is nothing you can do at this point but wait to see what happens. However, if you do get a charge of DUI contact an attorney and explain what you have posted here online. The police must provide you with certain rights before giving you a breath test and it certainly doesn't sound like they were given. If you get the DUI charge call me or another attorney as soon as you receive it.

Can an blood test show more alcohol than a breathalyzer test?

Yes. The alcohol in your blood does not stay the same over time. It rises, plateaus, then decreases. So a later test may show more or less alcohol.

The gun case is largely dependent upon what happens with the DWI. If you have a CHL, then the only way to beat the gun case is to beat the DWI.  The strength of the DWI depends on (a) how you looked on the cops dashcam video (if there was one); (b) the station video (if there was one); (c) whether there was a breath test or a blood test; and (d) what you told the officer during the course of his/her investigation and arrest. If you look normal and sound normal on the videos, and there is no breath or blood tests, you should not plea guilty to it, in my opinion.  Your options with respect to the DWI is to plead guilty to it, or set it for trial. You can't get deferred probation in Texas on an alcohol case, so that is why the options are more limited than for some other type of cases. Often, the only way to avoid a conviction for a DWI charge is to take it to trial, and to win.
