Penalties for a 2nd OUI in Boston
It’s not a surprise that the penalties for a second OUI or DUI conviction are more severe than those for a first-time OUI. Although a 2nd OUI is still considered a misdemeanor offense, if you are found guilty of a second OUI/DUI you could be sentenced to the following penalties:
- At least 60 days in jail, but not more than 2.5 years
- Fines up to $10,000
- License suspension for 1 year. After one year you may be eligible for a hardship license
Although these are all probable penalties for a 2nd OUI conviction in Boston, Mr. Brant is often able to secure the following alternative penalties by negotiating with the judge and/or prosecution:
- 2 years probation
- 2-week alcohol treatment & education program (at your expense)
- Mandatory installation of an ignition interlock device for 2 years (at your expense)
- Thousands of dollars in fines
- License suspension for 1 year. After one year you may be eligible for a hardship license
