DUI Convictions Prevent Crossing the Border into Canada

Canada's Inadmissible Class

Canadian DUIThe Canadian Government will prevent certain non-Canadian citizens from entering Canada. These individuals are members of an Inadmissible Classes. The Inadmissible status prohibits an individual from entering Canada and remaining within their borders. People often confuse this concept. They believe they can enter Canada as long as they are not driving their vehicle. That is incorrect. Having Inadmissible status means you cannot go to Canada.
Some criminal convictions will prevent a non-Canadian citizen from crossing the border into Canada. Minor offenses like shoplifting, theft, possession of illegal substances, and unauthorized possession of a firearm will prevent entry. Felony criminal convictions will also deny entry into Canada.

Canada and a DUI Conviction

Canada regards DUI / DWI as an extremely serious offense. A conviction for Driving Under the Influence (DUI or DWI) will qualify you as a member of the Inadmissible Class. Those non-Canadian citizens with such convictions will not be allowed to enter Canada freely.
The Inadmissible status can be removed, after a period of many years, by applying for a Minister's Approval of Rehabilitation. Although, you can visit Canada before the Inadmissible status is removed. This requires you apply for a Temporary Resident Permit. The Temporary Resident Permit allows you to visit Canada for a single purpose or for a limited period. This process requires completion of forms and paying fees.
Canada DUIPersons may apply for a Temporary Resident Permit, Approval of Rehabilitation, or Permission to Return to Canada either in Canada or at one these Canadian visa offices in the United States:
The Canadian Consulate General in Buffalo, NY

If you have been arrested for a DUI anywhere in California, we can help. With offices in Woodland Hills, San Diego, Newport Beach , Riverside / Inland Empire, San Francisco, and other California cities, we have experience in every California court.

California DUI defense attorney Darren T. Kavinoky has more than a decade of experience in successfully defending California drunk-driving, DUI / DWI, drinking and driving, and driving under the influence of drugs (DUID) cases.
The Kavinoky Law Firm focuses on defending those accused of driving under the influence (DUI) and related drunk-driving cases. California DUI law is complex, and Darren has the unique education, training and experience necessary to successfully defend a California DUI arrest anywhere in the state.
California law triggers two separate cases: a DUI / DWI court case, and a California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) case. When drivers are arrested for drunk-driving in California, they are charged with two different counts. The first is driving under the influence of alcohol; the second is a related charge of driving with a blood alcohol content (BAC) of .08 percent or higher. The latter charge is the one that triggers the California Department of Motor Vehicles DUI case, where theCalifornia DMV will attempt to suspend the motorist’s driving privileges.
California DUI/DWI LawURGENT: If you have been arrested for California DUI / DWI, it is vital that you act quickly to protect your driver’s license. You have only 10 days from the date of arrest to request a DUI DMV Administrative Per Se (APS) hearing with the California DMV. Contact California DUI defense lawyer Darren Kavinoky now to protect your legal rights if you or someone you know has been charged with a DUI, drunk-driving, driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or any drinking and driving arrest in California.
DUI defendants in California are typically charged with violating two different statutes: California Vehicle Code Section 23152 (a), and also Vehicle Code Section 23152 (b). The first section, known to California DUI lawyers as the "A" count, relates to driving while a person's physical or mental faculties are impaired by alcohol (or drugs) to the extent that they are "unable to drive their car with the same caution characteristic of a sober person, of ordinary prudence, under the same or similar circumstances." This is the legal standard for being considered under the influence of alcohol or drugs in California courts.
California Criminal Defense laywer, Darren T. KavinokyCalifornia drunk-driving arrests also give rise to a charge of violating Vehicle Code Section 23152 (b), known to California DUI lawyers as the "B" count. This charge is brought against those arrested for DUI who provide a breath or blood alcohol sample of .08 percent or greater. It does not matter what the driving pattern is like, or whether the individual arrested performed field sobriety tests with textbook precision. It is a charge that is based purely on body chemistry.
The Kavinoky Law Firm concentrates on DUI defense throughout California. Darren Kavinoky has defended hundreds of California DUI cases, is certified in standardized field sobriety testing, is certified in the operation of all breath-test devices used in California DUI cases, and is available to defend your California DUI case.

Legal Aid Boycott Update

ALL MATERIAL IS TAKEN FROM http://www.criminallawyers.ca/



On Monday June 1, 2009, the CLA Executive Board announced its resolution to request senior Toronto members not to take legal aid certificates in Guns & Gangs and homicide cases, effective immediately. Since that time, a large number of senior and junior Toronto members have pledged their commitment to this resolution, as have large numbers of lawyers in a number of other regions across the Province of Ontario. The purpose of this public resolution is to highlight a notorious imbalance in Ontario's criminal justice system between the government's funding of police and prosecution resources and legal aid defence counsel resources. This imbalance, and the urgent need to redress it, has been recognized by every expert body that has studied the matter. Government has repeatedly promised to fix it for years, but has not. All persons charged with criminal offences across Ontario, including the poor and underprivileged, deserve the right to be defended by adequately resourced and fairly compensated defence lawyers. Our criminal justice system's proper, fair and efficient operation depends as much on skilled and effective defence lawyers being willing and able to fight criminal cases, as it does on properly resourced and compensated police, prosecutors and judges. The Ontario legal aid system has been so consistently underresourced over the past 20 years that it is now chronically unable to ensure that underprivileged and poor criminal defendants get their  fair day in court. The government must take immediate steps to fix it.

DUI driver wets self; files $100,000 claim against city Police refused to allow man to use the bathroom during a DUI arrest, man claims.



By JON CASSIDY

NEWPORT BEACH – A Fountain Valley man who wet himself during a DUI arrest Jan. 3 has filed a claim against the City of Newport Beach seeking $100,000 for pain and suffering.
Davin Palitz has been "publicly humiliated," he said, since it was reported in a local newspaper Saturday that he had filed a claim alleging that police refused to let him use the bathroom during a DUI arrest.
"Somebody brought diapers to the front of my…house," Palitz said.
Palitz said that he has no plans to file a lawsuit and is withdrawing the claim, and that the claim was just to protect himself during a criminal trial.
"My attorney said, 'We're gong to fight this thing, we're going to win this thing, and the city's going to pay,'" Palitz said. Now, "I just want this to be over."
Palitz was convicted of driving under the influence and sentenced June 11 to 60 days in jail, an 18-month alcohol program, and five years of probation.
It was his second drunken driving conviction.
In an interview, Palitz said that he wasn't driving his SUV on the day of the arrest, and that there were two former friends in the car with him, whom he wasn't able to track down to subpoena to testify on his behalf.
"Yes, I was drinking. Yes, I shouldn't have been drinking," Palitz said. "I haven't had a drink since then."
When police arrested Palitz in front of the Villa Nova Restaurant at 3131 W. Coast Hwy around 11 p.m., he had the valet claim ticket to his 2007 black Cadillac Escalade in hand.
Police said that he was just pulling up; Palitz said that he was retrieving the SUV, which a friend was going to drive.
Nobody testified during the trial that they saw him driving, Palitz said.
Police were responding to a 911 call of an erratic driver running a red light.
A blood test showed Palitz's blood alcohol content was 0.18, and Palitz was confrontational during the arrest, police reported.
"I wasn't mouthing off. I was frustrated," Palitz said.
Palitz said that when he repeatedly asked to use the bathroom, the officer told him, "'You show me respect and I'll show you respect.'"
During the field sobriety test, Palitz was unable to hold it any longer.
Lt. Craig Fox of the Newport Beach Police Department said that for security and other reasons, suspects are not allowed to use the bathroom during arrests.
"The timing of this, that this was during an investigation, tells you something," Fox said. "It wasn't an hour later where he was put in a room and told, 'No you can't use the bathroom.'"
Palitz filed the claim because he was outraged that none of the three arresting officers allowed him to relieve himself, he said.
"What would you do? If you ask a police officer to let you go to the bathroom and there's an outhouse less than 10 steps away and they won't let you go?" Palitz said. "I asked him eight times."

news updates about DUI LAWYERS



Chappell ‘close’ but not DUI, GSP says
by John P. Boan/Times-Georgian1

Carroll County Commission Chairman Bill Chappell narrowly avoided being arrested late Thursday night, July 9, for driving under the influence of alcohol.

Chappell was released with no charges filed, having registered a blood-alcohol content less than .01 below the legal limit, according to the Georgia State Patrol, but the video taken from a state trooper’s dashboard camera shows a man unable to walk a straight line or stand on one leg.

Ultimately, that same trooper followed Chappell the less than 2 miles to his house to ensure he made it home safely.

The roadblock stop occurred before midnight on July 9 at the intersection of Highway 5 and Duncan Road in unincorporated Carroll County, according to Joey Boatright, commander of the Georgia State Patrol’s Villa Rica post. The copy of the video, obtained by the Times-Georgian through a Freedom of Information Act request, contains no time stamp, and there is no report documenting the time of the stop, leaving the exact time which the incident occurred in question.

Lt. Paul Cosper, public information officer with the state patrol, could not say why the tape lacked a clear time stamp and said he was not able to verify the specific time of the incident until he returned to work Thursday.

According to the tape, Chappell said he was returning home from a regional development council meeting in Greenville, the county seat of Meriwether County. Following the meeting’s end at 8:30 p.m., he stopped and had one cocktail before making a second stop at a convenience store for a Diet Coke, Chappell said Wednesday. He then drove home, running into the joint state patrol and Carroll County Sheriff’s Office roadblock near his house on Hamp Chappell Road, Chappell said.

The first audio of the video begins with Trooper Mike Land asking Chappell “What time did you have your drink?” The tape is silent for nearly a minute leading up to this exchange, though video is still present. The explanation given by the state patrol for any redaction in the audio portion of the tape is that it was done to protect any medical information Chappell was providing to the trooper.

On the video, Chappell explains to Land that he had a drink following the meeting he was attending, at which point the trooper asks Chappell if he can “check his eyes,” or perform a standard field Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus test, which serves to detect involuntary eye movements associated with the consumption of alcohol. Land performs this test on Chappell for nearly two and a half minutes.

During this process, Chappell comments that the flashlight is “hypnotizing,” and several times Land tells Chappell to only follow the light with his eyes and not turn his entire head.

According to Cosper, this test is the most accurate of all field sobriety tests, including the Alco-Sensor test, which serves as a portable Breathalyzer. The trooper noted from this test only two confirmations out of a possible three that Chappell’s blood alcohol was above the legal limit of .08 percent or higher, Cosper said. For this reason, the test was deemed inconclusive.

Following this initial test, Land asks Chappell if he is on any medication. For 45 seconds, the audio is once again silent while Chappell describes the medications he is taking.

“None of those medications affected Mr. Chappell’s ability to drive a car,” Cosper said.

On the tape, Land then administers the second field sobriety test, asking Chappell to take nine steps along a white line before turning around and taking nine steps in return. Before doing so, Chappell says “My balance is terrible.” He then proceeds to attempt to walk the line. His legs shake violently, causing him to nearly fall down to his left, and after overcorrecting, he falls off the line again to his right, reaching out to the side of his truck for support. Walking back, Chappell again falls from the line to both sides, finishing next to the trooper with both feet off the line.

“I couldn’t walk that line any time,” Chappell said on Wednesday. “I’d have a better time doing that if I’d have had a drink.”

In the video, Chappell then begins to cough loudly, and Land asks him he if he is all right, to which Chappell replies “yeah, I just got ...” and the sound is once again redacted.

The sound returns, and Land asks Chappell to stand on one foot with the other raised 6 inches off the ground, counting each second out loud. Chappell is only able to do so for less than 2 seconds at a time, his legs once again shaking beneath him.

Cosper would not say whether Chappell’s failure to walk a straight line or stand on one foot constituted a failure of those specific field sobriety tests, and he attributed Chappell’s struggles with the test to an unnamed “medical condition,” his weight and his age.

“The trooper didn’t feel that Mr. Chappell was over the influence at the time. He didn’t feel like he was over the influence,” Cosper said. “He said he was close but he wasn’t over the limit.”

Following the third test, Land goes to his car and retrieves the Alco-Sensor test and asks Chappell to blow. According to the video, Land says Chappell blew too hard and that the test did not register. Upon a second administration of the test, Land comments that Chappell blew .071 percent, .009 away from being above the legal limit for alcohol.

“All right Mr. Chappell. We’re going to let you ride tonight,” Land says, having returned to his car. “Let me tell you something, though, you were real close tonight.”

Chappell replies, “What was I?” Land tells him, to which Chappell says, “Oh really?”

Land said “Yes sir. You were one point off from being .08, which would have been over the limit. Try to take care next time and be careful ... if you plan on drinking before you drive.”

According to the video, Chappell then says, “I wouldn’t [inaudible]. I wouldn’t do that.”

In the video, Chappell then gets in his car, and Land into his. Chappell pulls away, and Land begins to follow Chappell home..

Cosper said it is not unusual for troopers to follow someone home if they’re concerned about the health of that person. Chappell had expressed to Land he had a medical condition and was having trouble breathing, and for this reason, Cosper said, Land made the decision to follow him home.

On the video, as he is pulling away from the checkpoint, Land says into the radio, “I’m going to follow Mr. Chappell. He’s not .. He blew a .071. I know he don’t live but a half a mile down the road. Just to be on safety’s sake, I’m going to follow him down, make sure he makes it home OK.”

DUI ARTICLE


Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/?expert=Tim_H

DUI articles are written on many topics and in general pertain to the topic of drunk driving, and more specifically the crime and punishments that follow a drunk driving and/or Driving Under the Influence (DUI) crime. When searching for DUI articles it's important to understand what specific topic you're researching as DUI articles span many different broad categories.

The various topics surrounding a DUI charge include such broad topics as:

· DUI punishments

· DUI drivers license suspensions

· DUI for commercial drivers (commercial drivers licenses are called CDL).

· DUI programs

· DMV penalties

· DUI insurance or more commonly referred to as SR22 insurance

· DUI expungement or record clearing.

· Breathalyzer tests

· Field sobriety tests

· DUI defense

And on, and on... But the point is that there are many different topics to discuss concerning DUI (drunk driving) and the specific articles that you may be seeking about the topic.

Each bulleted point above is a rather large area of conversation, legal research and contains many DUI articles about each particular subject. To get an in-depth perspective on each major DUI topic it is better to search on the topic keywords rather than simply searching on the general keyword DUI articles.

The best source to discover specific information and laws surrounding driving under the influence (drunk driving or DUI) is to seek out authority sites on the subject. You can do that by targeting the base keyword "DUI" or "DUI laws" in the major search engines. Then narrow your search on those specific DUI authority sites and seek out their particular DUI articles on the specific subject you are researching rather than initiating a search on Google or Yahoo with the keyword, DUI articles.

DUI Arrest Help.com is a recognized authority site for DUI/ drunk driving offenders. You can get a free consultation with a DUI lawyer and/or find the best deals on SR22 insurance or research their vast collection of DUI Articles
