This Chicago DUI Lawyer is concerned that during the current Illinois State Legislative Session, your representatives are trying once again to single out DUI as an exception to the rules.
A BILL FOR
HB3681 LRB096 09520 AJT 19677 b
1 AN ACT concerning transportation.
2 Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
3 represented in the General Assembly:
4 Section 5. The Illinois Vehicle Code is amended by adding
5 Section 16-106.3 as follows:
6 (625 ILCS 5/16-106.3 new)
7 Sec. 16-106.3. Erroneous appearance date. In any case
8 alleging a violation of Section 11-501 of this Code or similar
9 local ordinance, a case shall not be dismissed due to an error
10 by the arresting officer or clerk of the court or both in
11 setting a person's first appearance date.
More and more, I am beginning to see the defense of DUI's as my patriotic duty to uphold the Constitution.
