The notice the officer gave you prints the deadline. Read its date today.

The two clocks: court and DMV

Court caseCourt dateOn your citation or release papers.
DMV license caseDate on noticePrinted on the notice.

Your Oregon DUII arrest opened a criminal case and a separate license case with the DMV. If that date passes, your license can be suspended before you ever see a judge.

Vehicle-type and high-BAC provisions change the minimum fine. The test-failure rule shown is the adult category. (DMV rule)

A first offense in Oregon

For drivers over 21 years old, a test with 0.08 percent blood alcohol or more fails under implied consent (Oregon law).

First offense in Oregon
WhatThe rule
FineA first DUII conviction involving a vehicle other than a bicycle has a minimum fine of $1,000; high-BAC provisions can raise it
Agency stepsAn implied-consent suspension is separate from the suspension following a DUII conviction

The judge picks a number inside each range. So ask where cases like yours land in Oregon (Oregon penalty rules).

Second and later offenses

A prior raises the penalty in every state, and Oregon 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 Oregon depend on the charge and the BAC. Ask the lawyer which ones apply to yours.
