The good news is that in a first-offense DUI, judges have the discretion to impose sentences of 48 hours or public service. In order to retain your license after a DUI conviction, a person must obtain SR-22 insurance for a period of 3 years.

After A second offense DUI conviction, one can face a fine of $2,000.00 up to $5,000.00 and imprisoned for at least 5 days or up to 1 year. The fine cannot be less than $1,000. Again, a judge could order a person convicted of second-offense to do public service instead of serving time in jail.

After A conviction of third offense DUI, fine of at least $3,800.00 apply and could be as high as $6,300.00. Jail time can get up to a maximum of 3 years. Any more DUI convictions and you are facing up to 5 years of jail time. Now you are facing a felony DUI.
