Programs
Whether you will be required to attend an alcohol or drug treatment program depends upon if you are granted probation or not. A condition of being placed on probation for a first time DUI is that you must complete an alcohol/drug treatment program. If your blood alcohol level was less than a .20 you will be required to complete a 3 month program. If your blood alcohol level was .20 or more you will be required to complete a 6 month program.
If you have a second DUI (defined as another DUI within 7 years of an earlier DUI) you may be required to complete an 18 or a 30 month program approved pursuant to the California H&S Code.
Even if you aren't required by the Court to complete an alcohol/drug treatment program you will have to complete one to have your license reinstated by the DMV. These requirements are complicated and the advice of a competent lawyer is advisable.
