• Can I get my DWI dismissed? If so, how? How likely is dismissal of my DWI?
• I have heard of people reducing their DWI cases to “obstruction of a highway”. What is “obstruction of a highway?” How likely is it to get an “obstruction of a highway?”
• Will a DWI conviction be on my record forever?

At the Coffey Firm, we believe in straight talk. Mimi does not advertise “DWI dismissals” or “DWI reduced to Obstruction” for the following reasons:

• Very few DWI cases result in DWI dismissals. A check with the county clerk in any county will confirm this. The percentage of DWI cases resulting in dismissal to the those resulting in conviction are very few. The numbers vary from county to county and are dependent on a host of factors. The Coffey Firm does get dismissals and reductions but these are very fact and case dependent. No one result of a particular case is any indicator of the probability of another case’s disposition.
• Every DWI case stands on its own. It is not possible to “hear the circumstances” of a DWI case and assess its outcome. With every DWI, a full case review is necessary to determine the best course of action. A full blown case analysis includes discussing the facts as it relates to both sides, going over the police report and videos, and ascertaining the legalities of the situation. Also, to understanding the people and policies involved of the judge and prosecutor.
• There are a host of possibilities that may occur when one moves forward for a trial or motion. These possibilities include options that would never occur in a plea bargain. We are happy to discuss these with you when you retain us to represent you on your case.

Obstruction of a Highway

Obstruction of a highway or passageway is a Class B misdemeanor. The implications in a DWI context is to reach a settlement of the DWI case to avoid a DWI conviction. Most people are desirous of avoiding a DWI conviction. It is important to note that many DWIs do not receive this option. What this means, how it looks, and the implications and conditions of an obstruction of a highway are something we look forward to discussing with you, should it occur, in the representation of your case. It is important to note that there are distinct advantages to having your case reduced to an obstruction of a highway.

Will a DWI Dismissal stay on my record permanently?

The answer to that case use to be yes subject to a pardon by the Governor. Now the answer is a very complex one depending on your past arrest records and the facts of your DWI situation. Once we have resolved your case, we can then determine your eligibility for any options that involve sealing or expunging your record.

A DWI arrest may result in a suspension of your Texas Driver’s License. Having an experienced DWI law firm behind you is very important in protecting your rights. It is *incredibly* important to have a DWI Lawyer experienced in protecting your Texas Driver’s License.

How can The Coffey Firm help with my Texas Driver’s License after a DWI arrest?

The Coffey Firm is very familiar with the DWI license suspension process, described in more detail below, and has multiple lawyers who handle the ALR hearings. We even have one DWI lawyer dedicated to ALRs and other Texas Driver’s License matters. This includes petitioning for clients to obtain an Occupational Driver’s License (ODL) to allow clients to drive for essential needs during a DWI suspension. Rest assured that The Coffey Firm will fight to protect your Texas Driver’s License to allow you to live your life with as few restrictions as possible.

DWI and ALR Driver License Suspension

The main suspension that affects a person arrested for DWI is call the Administrative License Revocation (ALR) suspension. After police make a DWI arrest, the law requires them to read what is called a ‘statutory warning’ (DIC-24) to the person arrested for DWI. This warning goes over the consequences of giving breath or blood (a “failure” case if BAC is .08 or higher), and the consequences of *refusing* to give breath or blood. If you “refuse,” police must obtain a warrant to do a DWI blood draw. Keep in mind that on a ‘refusal’ case, DPS only has to prove everything up to the refusal itself. This means that for a ‘refusal’ case, DPS does not care about the actual blood result.

You have 15 days from the date of arrest (not the date of release or date of charge) to request the ALR hearing.

The consequences of a “failure” case are a 90 day suspension on a first time DWI arrest or a 1 year suspension for a second or more DWI arrest within 10 years. However, if you have a prior older than 10 years, then the clock essentially resets back to the first time DWI arrest. For example, a DWI arrest in 2023 when your prior occurred in 1991 will mean you only face a 90 day suspension in a ‘failure’ case.

The consequences of a ‘refusal’ case are a 180 day suspension on a first time DWI arrest or a 2 year suspension on a second or more DWI arrest within 10 years. As with the ‘failure’ cases, a prior DWI arrest from over 10 years ago does not affect you. So, a prior DWI suspension from 1991 would not affect a 2023 DWI suspension, at least for the ALR.

How does the DWI criminal case affect my Drivers License suspension?

If a jury finds you not guilty of DWI, then the ALR suspension goes away once DPS receives notice of the DWI not guilty.

But, here is the bad news: the criminal case *generally* does not affect your ALR drivers license suspension. This means that even if the State never files a DWI case against you or gives you a DWI dismissal or DWI reduction, that the ALR suspension would not go away.

The other bad news: a DWI conviction may result in a *separate* drivers license suspension. The law allows for the criminal court to issue its own DWI suspension upon a DWI conviction. This criminal suspension ranges from 90 days on the low end (first time DWI convictions) up to 2 years.

GOOD NEWS, though: on a first time DWI conviction, courts give credit for any ALR suspension already completed. In other words, the court may give you a 90 day criminal suspension, but with credit for 90 day ALR suspension. This would mean no separate suspension on more than paper. Similarly, on a first time DWI conviction there will typically be no separate criminal suspension if you receive DWI probation and that probation requires you to complete a DWI Education Program and/or requires you to only drive vehicles with an ignition interlock installed.

What if I have a Texas CDL? Does that change anything?

Short answer: yes, having a CDL makes quite a bit of difference.

The Texas CDL primarily affects the criminal case and eligibility for DWI deferred. But, having a Texas CDL also impacts your Texas Drivers License suspensions in a strange way. The base suspension does not change, but a CDL holder may receive a CDL disqualification *separate* from the regular license suspension. A first time DWI with a CDL results in a 1 year CDL disqualification on top of the base suspension. A second results in a lifetime CDL disqualification. (*however, the law does allow for a person to reapply for a CDL after a certain amount of time following the disqualification). This means that even once the ALR suspension ends, the disqualification would prevent driving commercial vehicles, which may place employment at risk for most CDL holders.

The Coffey Firm is dedicated to protecting your CDL so that a first time DWI does not ruin your life! Our DWI Lawyers know how important your CDL is to making a living and will fight hard so that you can keep your job.

What are the consequences to driving without a Texas Driver’s License?

The main consequence that you place yourself at risk of a Driving While License Invalid (DWLI) Or While License Suspended (DWLS) ticket. Fortunately, both of these are fine-only traffic tickets most of the time. However, there are circumstances that would raise it to a Class B Misdemeanor. One of those is driving without insurance. More importantly, though, is that if it was as DWI suspension the DWLI becomes a Class B Misdemeanor. This means that rather than simply paying a ticket, police may arrest you. This is why The Coffey Firm helps clients obtain an Occupational Drivers License in the event of a suspension. With the ODL, the court grants you permission to drive for essential need during the suspension, meaning that you are legal to drive within the restrictions set by the court.

In Texas, a single mistake behind the wheel can leave a lasting mark. But thanks to the Second Chance Law, some first-time DWI offenders now have a legal pathway to move forward—without their past following them at every turn.

What Is the Second Chance Law?

The Texas Second Chance Law allows certain individuals convicted of a first-time, non-violent DWI to seal their criminal record through an Order of Nondisclosure. This means the record is hidden from public view—employers, landlords, and most background checks won’t see it—but it’s still accessible to law enforcement and government agencies.

Who Qualifies for the Second Chance Law?

To be eligible, you must meet all of the following criteria:

• First-time DWI offense (no prior convictions)
• Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) below 0.15%
• No accident involving another person involved in the incident
• Completed all court-ordered requirements, including probation, fines, and alcohol education
• No additional criminal charges before or after the DWI

If your case involved a child passenger, bodily injury, or a BAC above 0.15%, you are unfortunately disqualified from this relief.

Waiting Periods

The law includes mandatory waiting periods before you can apply:

These timelines are designed to ensure that applicants demonstrate sustained good behavior before sealing their records.

How to Apply

Here’s a simplified roadmap:

1. Gather documentation: Court records, proof of completed requirements, and personal identification.
2. File a petition: Submit to the court that handled your case.
3. Attend a hearing (if required): Be prepared to show compliance and good conduct.

Why It Matters

A sealed record can open doors that a DWI conviction might otherwise slam shut—especially when applying for jobs, housing, or professional licenses. In a state like Texas, where DWI penalties have grown stricter in recent years, this law offers a rare and valuable lifeline.

What the Second Chance Law DOES NOT Do

It’s important to note: This is not expungement. Your record isn’t erased—it’s just hidden from public view. Law enforcement and courts can still access it, and it may still impact certain legal proceedings or licensing applications.

If you or someone you know is navigating the aftermath of a DWI, the Second Chance Law might be the key to a fresh start. It’s not a free pass—but it is a powerful reminder that one mistake doesn’t have to define your future.

BD, one of these medical companies, issued a recall of just under 250,000 tubes because of an issue with the preservative. To illustrate, the preservative is, as the name implies, designed to preserve the blood and combat issues like fermentation. Without this preservative (or with defective preservative), fermentation and other issues have a higher risk of occurrence. But, BD is not wholly to blame for the issues associated with the recall. To their credit, in the recall notice BD advised agencies to review inventory and return defective tubes. In a later notice, they even recommended destroying all affected tubes. However, Texas DPS gave conflicting instructions by telling agencies to “submit specimens [quickly]” even when it came to recalled tubes.

How many cases has the Texas DWI blood tube recall affected?

Put simply, in many cases (about 2,760 identified cases) agencies used, and labs tested, recalled tubes. Because of the unfortunate COVID 19 pandemic, many of these cases are *just now* before a court. Mimi currently has a few clients whose arrests fell within the time period where police may have used the recalled tubes. Mimi understands the science behind DWI blood testing and likes to review the detailed blood records to determine the presence of issues that might show a higher or lower BAC. She recently appeared on NBC 5 as part of their “NBC Investigates” segment on the recalled blood tubes. You can find that DWI blood tube article on NBC 5’s website.

The post Texas DWI Blood Tube Recall appeared first on DWI Attorneys and Criminal Defense Lawyers.

One of the basis concepts in Criminal Law is that police must have reasonable suspicion to begin an investigation. Reasonable suspicion exists when, based on the totality of the circumstances, the officer has specific, articulable facts that, when combined with rational inferences from those facts, would lead him to reasonably conclude that a person is, has been, or soon will be engaged in criminal activity. While this is an objective standard under the law, sometimes the subjective intent of the officer seeps in. For example, while the officer may objectively have a reason to stop you for speeding, he might subjectively want to make a DWI stop. The officer may develop this intent if, for example, his patrol route is in an area with multiple bars or if he patrols a specific time of night.

Where this standard becomes questionable is when the “reasonable suspicion” does not arise until after an encounter. To illustrate, imagine seeing an accident on the road and, being a good Samaritan, you pull over to help if needed. The police arrive and start interviewing everyone on scene and, during the conversation, you mention that you had a few drinks earlier before pulling over to help with the accident. Suddenly, the officer pulls you to the side to have you perform the pseudo-scientific SFSTs, even though you were only there to help!

Corpus Delicti

Simply admitting to driving is not enough. This falls under a Criminal Defense rule called “corpus delicti”. This rule requires the Prosecution to prove the commission of a crime before an out-of-court admission to a crime is admissible as evidence. In the realm of Texas DWI, this means that simply admitting to driving is not enough. Further, police may not require a person “to undergo [SFSTs] without reasonable suspicion that the person [is DWI]”.

Rudd v. State

A good example of how Texas likes to ignore this rule is State v. Rudd, 255 S.W.3d 293. In that case, a friend drove out to the scene of an accident at the injured driver’s request. During the course of investigating the accident, police notice the “smell of alcohol” on Rudd. Rudd was already out of his car when police arrived, but they made him do the SFSTs anyways. Ultimately, police arrested Rudd for DWI despite no driving facts other than Rudd’s admission.

The trial court suppressed evidence of the SFSTs based on an “invalid detention” (i.e., no reasonable suspicion). This was an amazing display of justice by the trial court. Unfortunately, the appellate court said the trial court erred. The appellate court said that the officer did have reasonable suspicion for the DWI investigation. In what world is allowing police to arrest with no driving facts just? Texas has no excuse for ignoring the reasonable suspicion requirement for investigations. We should not be coming up with any unrelated excuse to jump into SFSTs and DWI investigations. The law requires reasonable suspicion to detain for Texas DWI.

Fermentation

One of the main issues with a Texas DWI blood test is fermentation. The technical definition of fermentation is “the chemical process by which molecules are broken down anaerobically”. This can be described in simpler terms as the process where a substance metabolizes. Many people are familiar with the concept of fermentation related to making things like beer or wine. What many may not know is that blood can also experience fermentation. When a DWI Blood Tube is old or defective, room air can get in and cause the blood to ferment faster. When blood experiences fermentation, it tends to result in a higher blood alcohol score.

For example, a fermented sample may return a result above .15 even though the actual alcohol content should be much lower. This is one explanation for why many people hear/see the blood result and say “I know I wasn’t that drunk”. Mimi has a background in science and has hands-on experience analyzing blood test results through education at Axion Labs and the UTA Shimadzu lab on gas chromatography. This is one reason why Mimi might request blood discovery for your case. What she finds in that discovery might show that fermentation or a host of other issues might be at play.

Other Texas DWI Blood Test Issues

There are a host of issues that can affect the reliability of the blood test or its result, including:

• Fermentation (see above)
• Contamination – for example, another substance mingles with the blood.
• Misidentification – for example, placing the wrong name on the tube. This can also happen when placing incorrect information on the tube..
• Improper Calibration – this occurs, for example, when the testers do not properly calibrate the machine used for testing.
• Expired Calibration – when the machine used for testing is out-of-date.
• Inaccurate Pipettes
• Inaccurate Dilutors
• Deficient Quality Control – when the technique is not properly supervised, or when the blood results are not double-checked before submission.
• Improper venipuncture (see video) – in other words, when the technician does not perform the blood draw correctly.
• Inaccurate calculations (at all levels including the calibration curve & margin of error). In other words, interpreting the data incorrectly.

See the below video for an example of proper blood draw procedure.

A little background:

When we were nearing the end of this client’s case, the District Attorney started talking about a prior DWI from a different county. Our client told us that she had never even been to the county of the alleged conviction! After investigating a bit, we discovered that DPS incorrectly placed this prior DWI on our client’s DPS criminal background. Not only that, the background associated 2006 conviction to a 1994 arrest from our client’s actual county of residence. Digging even deeper, we discovered that this conviction belonged to someone with an who’s ID had one different digit. This means that some law enforcement agency screwed up our client’s background by putting the wrong digit.

We eventually cleared up that confusion on our client’s case, but then faced the task of fixing our client’s background. Geoff started working by contacting the Tarrant County District Attorney’s office to talk to their expunction department. Geoff was not able to reach the DA in charge of that department, but spoke with her assistant. They directed him to contact the Tarrant County Sheriff’s Department’s error resolution section, who never returned his calls despite multiple voice messages. Eventually, he contacted the DPS error resolution department itself, who still took their sweet time in responding. After a few months of work, DPS finally contacted our office and told us that they cleared our client’s background. This happened without our client needing to pay any filing fees and without needing any court involvement.

Though not a perfect (or long-term) solution, the Fort Worth Police Department has a new policy regarding marijuana possession. If police catch a person possessing a small amount of marijuana (usually under 4 ounces), they will confiscate it but not make an arrest or issue a citation. At least, this is the case in Fort Worth. Other police agencies within Tarrant County do not share this policy and still make marijuana arrests. This means it is up to the District Attorney on whether the prosecute a marijuana possession case from one of these other Tarrant County Police Departments. This is why Fort Worth PD’s solution for marijuana possession charges is not ideal. Mimi is a criminal defense lawyer in Tarrant County and has a reputation as a fighter. She will fight for the best possible solution, especially due to the problem with testing a confiscated substance.

This problem isn’t just focused on Tarrant County, though. There is a reverse situation in Dallas County. There, the DA has a policy of not prosecuting (most) small marijuana possession charges, but Dallas PD still makes arrests and puts people in jail. Not to be overly political, but it seems the ideal solution for this disconnect regarding marijuana possession is to for the State Legislators to step in. If we have a state-wide decriminalization of small marijuana possession, then perhaps it would solve this disconnect while also preventing a backlog of possession cases in the misdemeanor courts.

Why decriminalize small marijuana possession?

Decriminalizing small marijuana possession seems to make sense because there is an issue with testing. Texas recently decriminalized most Hemp and CBD products. Because of this, the State now has a problem in determining the chemical makeup of confiscated substances. There are no labs that have an official way of determining whether a confiscated substance is CBD or marijuana. If the labs cannot differentiate, how would a Prosecutor know whether they are dealing with a legal substance or marijuana? This is a legal issue, because Prosecutors might allege criminal possession when the substance, in fact, was completely legal.

Mimi Coffey appeared on NBC 5 news to provide the perspective of a criminal defense lawyer in Fort Worth. She stated that prosecutors have no way to tell the difference between hemp and marijuana. The full NBC 5 story can be found at https://www.nbcdfw.com/news/local/fort-worth-police-stop-enforcing-most-marijuana-laws-amid-questions-about-testing/2488259/.

Regardless, we understand the frustration of having to fight two charges at once. We understand that you do not want a Texas DWI and UCW (unlawfully carrying a weapon) conviction. The Coffey Firm will do the best we can in defending you. We will walk you through all the evidence, Texas gun forfeiture laws & Texas DWI law, and options. We combine this with an in depth understanding of your facts, circumstances, life pressures and priorities.

Some helpful information when facing Texas DWI and Texas UCW include:

1. Understand that the law makes it illegal to carry a gun after a DWI conviction.
2. Your gun case is a separate case from your DWI.
3. There are many options and legal considerations for getting your gun back.

We will discuss the objectives of your gun with you. This means its return, its forfeiture in exchange for various plea options if relevant, and more. We will do the best we can to help you achieve your goal.

What are the Texas Gun Forfeiture Laws?

The law on gun forfeiture and return on a Texas UCW (Texas Penal Code 46.02) is governed by the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure Article 18.19. What is most often relevant is (d):

(d)  A person either convicted or receiving deferred adjudication under Chapter 46, Penal Code, is entitled to the weapon seized upon request to the court in which the person was convicted or placed on deferred adjudication. However, the court entering the judgment shall order the weapon destroyed, sold at public sale by the law enforcement agency holding the weapon or by an auctioneer licensed under Chapter 1802, Occupations Code, or forfeited to the state for use by the law enforcement agency holding the weapon or by a county forensic laboratory designated by the court if:

Please do not lose hope.

Remember, your gun case is just one part of the Texas DWI picture. Without a Texas DWI conviction (unless there are other legal reasons), your gun possession is legal. However, even with a DWI conviction, your chances of getting your gun back are largely in part up to you. But do not worry, we will carefully go over these options and choices and look forward to helping you.
