    So let me get this straight, since your first post is sort of ambiguous, you got a ticket for DWLI and failed to take care of it since it was so expensive. Finally got caught, and now you want to lawyer up so that it doesn't affect your record or cost you more money?

    Man that $631 is going to look good once you get through with lawyers and court costs and surcharges and whatnot.
    Actually, just spoke to my attorney and I should be able to get my money back from Dallas once I send in an appeals letter (which the attorney is assisting me with) so yeah, not so expensive after all...

    You see there will be no surcharges as that is why I have the attorney (keeping this off my record). Second, this will take 4-6 months to clear up. While that is happening I can petition/appeal to Dallas county to refund the bond to me as this is now in Arlington Courts. I take that $631 and subtract $50 for my attorney cost and get differed adjudication in which I will end up paying roughly $230 in fees which saves me 351.00....

    so yeah, the 631 does not look so good

    Thanks for all of the help guys

      You sometimes forget things. I know I do. And I know I did. I am going through something similar. Got stopped on 12/19 in McKinney. Unbeknownst to me, my license was suspended on 12/18 over a ticket. Officer wrote me a DWLI, but did not take me to jail. He cut me a break because I honestly had no idea, and it had just been suspended the day before. I have to go to court on the 21st over it, and I have an atty. Hope it's not too bad.

        Deffered adjudication is your friend...you still have court fees and a small, reduced fine but in the end you dont have to worry about Austin bending you over...

              Q: How do people fail to pay tickets?
              A: money is an issue..or they forget

              Q:Why make arrangements to pay if money is an issue?
              A: This is just plain stupid but maybe they are trying to prolong the warrant being issued?

                Austin already bent me over. Lol. So far, this lapse in memory has cost me $2200 I believe. Not including whatever happens on the 21st. Are you positive you can do deferred on a dwli? I thought it was for moving violations only...

                  I am not so sure you understand how it works... I don't know what your lawyer told you, but it is near impossible to get a dwil dropped even if you contact the court in time. There is really no excuse you can give the court for having no license... Second its not up to your lawyer if you are going to get deferred. It is up to the judge. I am willing to bet since you sat on the ticket for so long you will be paying the 631+. Lawyer or not.

                    I have been told today that you can get deffered on a DWLI. Austin finds out about this one (guilty conviction or no contest) then they will stick it to you more than they are now.

                      Politics my friend, what happens when the lawyer and judge are friends as it is in most courts?

                          Forget? I would think that the thought of going to jail for failing to pay would keep any rational person from "forgetting."

                          My memory is absolute shit and I've never forgotten about a ticket. Then again, I'm not a big fan of prison rape. Admit it, prison rape is the reason why you "forgot," isn't it?
                          How do we forget ourselves? How do we forget our minds?

                            I dont recall those exact words having been typed in my post. Also, just got off the phone with the lawyer and they are charging me $75.00 and since I spent time in jail I should also get some of that $631.00 back.
                            AND...this will not go on my record....

                            Call Jim Lollar if you like to verify seeing as most of you on here says this will not happen....

                              Lou Lou is not State prison and I did not see any "prison rape" happening in the COUNTY JAIL (not prison)

                                Also, if you happen to know any former or current inmates they will tell you that rape is not a common practice amongst the male population (although it may happen) it is not widley practiced...

                                Just because you go to jail does not turn you into a homo. Most inmates rub it out in the shower or toilet stall in the commons area FYI
