Question: What happens on a .08 DUI conviction, and does it differ depending on the Court in Los Angeles? Mine is in Van Nuys Court, but I was arrested in Encino?

Answer: If there is a DUI conviction, you the penalties can include a combination of jail time, probation, heavy fines, alcohol classes, license suspension, interlock device, and other penalties. Some courts have different practices for giving more or less favorable offers than others.
I would recommend at least consulting with a private attorney to discuss your case in further detail. I have been successful in getting dui charges dismissed, including a dui case that I handled today.

Also, you only have 10 days from your arrest to request a dmv hearing. If not, the dmv will likely automatically suspend your license.
