Many families fear what may happen if they or a loved one is arrested and they are undocumented, have come to Texas illegally and do not have citizenship papers.

What to expect:
- DWI cases usually last between 6 months to a year, requiring multiple court appearances. 
- Your license will likely be revoked or suspended. 
​- If your Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) was greater than .15%, you will likely receive an ignition interlock device in your car (a breathalyzer installed in your car that you must breathe into before the car will start). If you breathe anything above a 0, the car will not start. It is also equipped with a camera to ensure that you (the driver) are the one breathing into the device. 
1st Offense DWI Penalties:
- If your BAC was less than .15%, this will be a Class B misdemeanor if you are convicted.  
- If your BAC was greater than .15%, this will be a Class A misdemeanor if you are convicted. 
- If convicted, you will likely pay fines from $2,000 to $4,000. 
- Your license will likely be suspended for 90 days to 12 months. 
- You may be required to spend 72 hours to 6 months in jail (or up to one year in jail if BAC was more than .15%).
- You can opt or may be required to have an ignition interlock device installed in your car. 
- You may be required to take and complete a DWI education program and do community service.
- You may be sentenced to probation if convicted.
