Will a DUI in the past two years hinder me from being accepted into a Florida nursing program for fall (09)?
Question by NewCastleGrl: Will a DUI in the past two years hinder me from being accepted into a Florida nursing program for fall (09)?
I got a DUI coming home from my best friend’s bachelorette party. The “conviction” is in ’08. I have done everything the court has asked and am on my last leg of getting things completely out of the way (probation is done in June). I will be graduating with my AA in “pre nursing” at the end of this semester (May), with all of the pre reqs for the nursing program. As I have been researching when the deadlines are, I came across some questions regarding DUI’s and program entry/ licensing testing. I don’t want to 1) go through schooling and not be able to take the test because of this dumb decision and 2) waste the time and energy to get the pretesting done to enter the program (I have a 5 month old little boy and I already ask family members to watch him so I can study, etc).
My question is if there is anyone that knows first hand what stipulations they follow or if anyone has been in this situation and has been able to attend classes/get a license? While researching I saw that if the DUI had happened in 5 years or less, the person was not granted admission to the program. I know that my best bet would be to get a hold of some one at the BOD.
I truly hope this isn’t the case as I have been working my butt off!! Any advice would be helpful!

in florida did you know a dui stays on your record for 75 years.it’s absolutely insane here-no second chances http://www.floridashealth.com/mqa/nursing/ap_licensure-RN-LPN.pdf this is the florida licensing board. read the policy very carefully-it does make a difference if it’s a misdemeanor or felony conviction.but they do go on a case by case study.so it’s 50/50 chance.i would call them and ask if you have a good chance of being able to sit for the boards,my friend who completed boards then got a dui was not suspended,but she went through treatment(she wasn’t an alcoholic) but had to gain forgiveness if you know what i mean. remember to admit the offense because they will check your record.also there are some states that allow 1 dui so you could move out of florida if you wanted nursing that bad.another idea is to get it expunged or sealed on your record.call a criminal attorney or look online for one in florida here is one to try http://www.attorneyowens.com/PracticeAreas/Sealing-My-Record.asp it is not that expensive and no future employer in future will ever know i feel for you florida is cruel

Might i recommend you step back for a second. Please see the big picture here and take a deep breath.
Please hire a lawyer and get him to get the DUI dismissed. Trust me you don’t want it on your record at all.
I want you to step back and look at your entire life and not just being a lifeguard today. Bear in mind I cannot be your lawyer, nor can you hire me, nor am i giving you legal advice. So put out of your mind any notion that I have some ulterior motive to this answer. People ask questions on here, I prefer to answer what they need to hear, not what they want to hear.

Cigar Companion (Connoisseur's Guides)
Question by Bee: I recently was arrested for DUI in Florida, What should I do?
I was driving from the beach back home from a club and a cop pulled me over.. he did the sobriety tests next thing you know it i was brought to the station. I agreed to take the breathalyzer test because they told me if I didnt they would suspend my license for a year.. I had a 0.12 BAC. I am not sure if i should hire a lawyer or not.. This is my first time offense ever i have no record at all. I just dont want to waste $ $ $ on a lawyer if I am still going to be charged as guilty because technically I took the breathalyzer test. I am so confused.. Is it worth to get a lawyer? Does anybody know what happens if I do get one vs. if I don’t?? PLEASE HELP!!! Any legal advice would really help me out. Thanks.
I already learned my lesson ok.. don’t post answers that are not going to help me. I made ONE mistake.. that doesn’t make me a criminal or an alcoholic seeing is how I made one stupid mistake. Everybody makes mistakes and I shouldn’t be judged due to it.

Question by Chris: Arrest warrent for Dui in Florida from 2004 what to do?
I was pulled over last night in my home state of WV for a backlight out. I was then told to step out because they said I had a warrent in fl. They didnt take me in or anything because it was pick up only. Not really clear on that. Anyway my question is I thought I did everything for the dui. Obvisioully I did not what is the best way in going about getting everything done. I cant do it right now because I am about to graduate college but I would like to clear everything so my background doesnt like that sketchy. Would I have to go to florida or will I be able to do everything from WV. Not sure where to start a little advice would help.

Call the county court where the court case was done. They will tell you what you need to do. You will have to go back to that county before a judge to get it decided.
