Massachusetts OUI Laws & Court Process
Under Massachusetts OUI law, a person is considered too intoxicated to be operating a motor vehicle when their blood alcohol concentration reaches .08 percent or higher. At this point, the driver's physical coordination and mental alertness has been compromised, increasing their chances of causing an accident and harming others.
If you have been charged with DUI or OUI in Worcester County, it is imperative that you speak with a skilled Worcester DUI attorney as soon as possible. The sooner you consult an attorney, the sooner your attorney can begin preparing for the Registry Hearing and the criminal case.
The main DUI criminal process begins with an arraignment, where you will appear at Uxbridge District Court before a judge who will read the charges being filed against you. You will then enter your plea of guilty or not guilty. The next stage in the DUI process is the pre-trial hearing. Before your case moves to trial, you and your attorney will need to decide whether to accept a plea bargain from the District Attorney, which likely involves pleading guilty to a lesser offense, such as reckless driving, in exchange for avoiding prosecution and trial. If you and your attorney decide to decline the plea bargain, your case will move to trial where your fate will be left in the hands of jury.
