Skip all of this non-sense and hire an attorney familiar with DWI/DUI. Just be sure to give your lawyer all the facts. Hope you learned your lesson. It could have been a lot worse.

You can't remember the arrest or what happened before the arrest?? Must have been a heck of a night!!!!! If you plead not guilty, it will go to court for trial. If you should lose, it is going to cost you much more (lawyer, court fees, etc.) If you plead "no contest" you will probably have the fine reduced somewhat and will attend counseling.... If you go before the judge and plead not guilty because you can't remember the arrest......ummm, your screwed!

chances are if you were arrested for a DWI and you don't remember anything......then you were probably WAY TRASHED. Pleading guily, acknowledging that you did something wrong, that you aware you made a mistake and don't plan to make that mistake is a WAY BETTER WAY TO GO.
You plead not guilty.......its as if you dont really think what you did was wrong and the judge won't really like that too much.
Of course, I'm not a lawyer.

you can have a trial....though I don't think telling the judge: I was so loaded, I don't remember, therefore it must not have happened...
will work. Talk to an attorney. There are Lawyers that deal with DWI/DUIs a lot. they can give you advice.

get a lawyer, looking on your state rules it would desire to help it would desire to no longer. Like right here you does no longer have of project, license lost for a three hundred and sixty 5 days, effective and time, plus probation after time after which you may desire to attend AA and alcohol instructions. i be attentive to this reason a pal of mine have been given a dwi, and that's each and everything she have been given for a prevalent offense and he or she blew only over the cut back.

if you plead not guilty, then you can have a trial
if you are found guilty in a trial, you will be punished a lot harsher than just manning up to the crime. the judge will think you are a lot more arrogant

Then you have to go through the rigamarole of getting a lawyer or public defender and listen to the police reading off your blood alcohol content as relayed by their testing equipment and be charged additional fees for your lawyer and the court fees on top of your fines for your drunk driving.

The trial would continue, and proof would be offered that you were in fact intoxicated and operating a motor vehicle, and you'd likely be found guilty and hammered.

Just tell the judge that you were so drunk you don't remember a thing. That always works. I'd be surprised if the judge even fined you.
