Arrested for DUI in Utah? 10 days to ask for the hearing.
Counted from the arrest. If that was today, the last day is Monday, October 19. Miss it and the suspension starts on its own (DLD rule).
The two clocks: court and DLD
Your Utah DUI arrest opened a criminal case and a separate license case with the DLD. If that time runs out, your license can be suspended before you ever see a judge.
The withdrawal date is not the hearing-request deadline. First-offense court fine and jail ranges were not verified. (DLD rule)
A first offense in Utah
The statute includes blood or breath alcohol concentration of 0.05 grams or greater at operation or physical control (Utah law).
| What | The rule |
|---|---|
| License rules | DLD says driving privileges may be withdrawn 45 days after arrest |
| Agency steps | Request the license hearing from DLD through its hearing-request channel |
The judge picks a number inside each range. So ask where cases like yours land in Utah (Utah penalty rules).
Second and later offenses
A prior raises the penalty in every state, and Utah 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 Utah depend on the charge and the BAC. Ask the lawyer which ones apply to yours.
