First-Time DUI Penalties in Indiana
Unlike other misdemeanors, which come with a simple fine or minimal jail time, DUI convictions can have a greater impact on the accused. This is because multiple types of penalties can apply, enforced by both the state under the criminal statute (IC 9-30-5) and the BMV.
First-time DUI penalties in Indiana can include:
180-day license suspension
A maximum of 60 days in jail
A maximum fine of $5000 (minimum of $500)
Possible substance abuse assessment
It is also possible, if the court sees fit, that an ignition interlock device may be mandated in the accused’s car following their license suspension. Keep in mind: these are maximum penalties that can be argued down and avoided. In many cases, even the license suspension can be reduced with an appeal for a limited driver’s license. These outcomes are only possible, however, with effective legal counsel in your corner.
