Defense for Drunk Driving (DUI/DWI) & Drug Posession Available to DUI/DWI Attorneys Through Sobriety and Drug Courts In the State of Michigan
Sobriety Courts and/or Drug Courts are recently integrated approaches that have been set up to reduce DUI/DWI's by helping promote recovery of offenders instead of arbitrary punishment. With the main objective(s) being to reduce future drinking & driving and drug posession offenses, the repercussions for such initial offenses are now being redirected toward being sentenced to treatment centers, sober living homes, halfway houses, transitional residences, etc.
Working under a “Jail Diversion” initiative, these courts allow the integration of alcohol and drug treatment services wherein the defense attorney and prosecutor/district attorney work towards a speedy resolution of the case with an ultimate goal of addressing the defendant’s substance abuse issues and or DUI / DWI situation. The process involves the following pertinent steps:
- Placement of the defendant rapidly into meaningful substance abuse transitional sober living facility, treatment center rehab or halfway 3/4 house
- Frequent testing to determine whether the defendant is using alcohol or other drugs.
- A team approach within the defendant’s treatment program including the judge, the treatment provider, probation, and both the defence attorney and prosecutor as deemed necessary
- Regular appearances of the defendant before the judge, on the record, to monitor program compliance
- A system of graduated sanctions and rewards based upon the defendant’s performance

”In a collective effort to better realize the full promise and potential of drug treatment courts, Michigan intends to enlarge the capacity of existing drug courts, and establish new drug courts so that more people will benefit. With each new court, Michigan has a greater opportunity to employ a preferred multifaceted approach to dealing with drug use and crime.”
