Federal Court has DIFFERENT RULES:

  • Federal Court requires different PROCEDURAL RULES than State Superior Courts.
  • Federal Court follows a different SUBSTANTIVE LAW called the Codes of Federal Regulations.

Many DUIs on federal lands are considered “petty offenses,” but the penalties are not petty. Any crime punishable by six months or less, including some DUIs, is considered a petty offense. The right to jury trial does NOT apply to petty offenses. If you pick up a DUI on federal lands you are at the mercy of the local federal magistrate judge. All factual determinations will be made by the federal magistrate judge, not by a jury.

You would be smart to hire an experienced DUI attorney like Scott B. Ennis Esq. to represent you for your FIRST OFFENSE, MULTIPLE OFFENSE, COMPLEX OFFENSE, OR DUI in Federal District Magistrate Court. Call Scott Ennis on his cell phone ANYTIME to schedule a free consultation: (209) 200-7200.

Scott got my 3 DUI felony charges dropped to one misdemeanor. Scott did an outstanding job. Give this man a call immediately if you're ever in trouble with the law.
