DUI / DWI Process

If you are arrested for a Washington DUI or Physical Control charge you will most likely be facing two separate legal cases – a criminal charge filed in District or Municipal court and an administrative hearing with the Department of Licensing.    These two cases are totally separate and the results of one will not necessarily impact the other.  It is important to note that you must request a hearing with the Department of Licensing within 20 days of the date of your arrest/notice even though it may take many months for the prosecutor to file criminal charges of DUI or Physical Control in court.
