Questions
What are the penalties for DUI in Georgia?
First-offense DUI penalties include fines ($300-$1,000), jail time (minimum 24 hours), and license suspension. Repeat offenses carry increased penalties including potential vehicle forfeiture.
Can felony charges be dismissed in Georgia?
Yes, through legal motions challenging evidence admissibility, procedural errors, or insufficient probable cause. Pretrial diversion programs may also lead to dismissal for eligible defendants.
What constitutes medical malpractice in Georgia?
Medical malpractice requires proof of duty of care breach, substandard treatment compared to medical professionals, and demonstrable harm caused by the negligence through expert testimony.
How long can a felony charge remain pending?
While most felonies have a 4-year statute of limitations, serious crimes like murder have no time limit. Cases may remain open indefinitely due to court backlogs or ongoing investigations.
