If you violate probation in Colorado, your probation officer files a complaint with the court, and a revocation hearing is scheduled before a judge, not a jury. The burden of proof is lower than in a criminal trial, and the range of outcomes is wider than most people expect. The Law Office of Kimberly Diego defends people facing probation violation allegations throughout Denver and surrounding Colorado courts.
How the ViolationA first DUI is a serious matter, but a second or third DUI is even more so. Whether or not you have any priors will have a significant impact on your case. Not only will your priors increase the length of any potential incarceration in your case, but your priors may result in more community service, larger fines, and a longer period of restriction on your license.
Many of our past clients have had two, three, or four prior DUI arrests. Ms. Diego has experience handling the particular concerns involved in a case where there has been a previous drunk driving arrest and/or conviction.
