People also ask:

What are the penalties for a first-time DUI in Colorado?

In Colorado, a first-time DUI is a misdemeanor, but the penalties are far from minor. Lindstrom Law can help you understand your charges.

Seven days. This is the most time-sensitive part of your case and is entirely separate from your criminal court date. In most situations, Lindstrom Law can assist with the initial hearing request.

While a Driving While Ability Impaired (DWAI) may be seen as a “lesser” charge than a DUI, it still carries a criminal record and serious consequences. Lindstrom Law can help you understand your options when facing a DWAI.

This usually depends on where the arrest occurred and which agency (Local Law Enforcement, Colorado State Patrol, etc.) cited you.

As an example, in Mesa County, your summons will specify which court is handling your case. 

  • Mesa County Justice Center: Most DUI and criminal cases are heard here. It houses both the 21st Judicial District and the Mesa County Court: 125 N Spruce St, Grand Junction, CO 81501

  • Grand Junction Municipal Court: If you were cited within city limits for a municipal code violation, your case may be heard here: 250 N 5th St, Grand Junction, CO 81501

  • Fruita Municipal Court: For specific municipal offenses occurring within the City of Fruita: 325 E Aspen Ave, Fruita, CO 81521

  • Palisade Municipal Court: Handles municipal violations within the Town of Palisade: 175 E 3rd St, Palisade, CO 81526
