The notice the officer gave you prints the deadline. Read its date today.
The two clocks: court and ITD
Your Idaho DUI arrest opened a criminal case and a separate license case with the ITD. If that date passes, your license can be suspended before you ever see a judge.
The reinstatement fee is not a court fine. No first-offense fine or jail range was verified. (ITD rule)
A first offense in Idaho
A statutory basis for DUI is an alcohol concentration of 0.08 or more (Idaho law).
| What | The rule |
|---|---|
| Getting the license back | ITD lists a $285 reinstatement fee for an Idaho DUI conviction |
| Agency steps | ITD lists DUI convictions among those requiring an SR-22 |
The judge picks a number inside each range. So ask where cases like yours land in Idaho (Idaho penalty rules).
Second and later offenses
A prior raises the penalty in every state, and Idaho is no exception. Tell the lawyer about any earlier case on the first call. Second offense DUI rules lists the states with published ranges.
Add-on fines and the newest change
Interlock orders and add-on fines in Idaho depend on the charge and the BAC. Ask the lawyer which ones apply to yours.
