3rd Offense OUI Massachusetts
Third Offense OUI Penalties
Unlike a first offense OUI or a second offense OUI, a third offense OUI in Massachusetts is a felony. In addition, a conviction carries a minimum mandatory jail sentence of 180 days, and a maximum sentence of 2 ½ years. In short, if you are convicted of a third offense OUI you will go to jail. In addition to the jail time, you can expect to face thousands of dollars of fines, and a license loss of five years.
Prior Convictions
If you are charged with a third offense OUI, one of the first things that Attorneys James G. DeGiacomo and Sergey Mikhlin will ask you about is your prior convictions. Because Massachusetts has a life time look back for OUIs, it is important to do everything possible to attack those prior convictions in order to avoid jail time and a lengthy loss of license.
Chemical Test Refusals
If you refused the breathalyzer during your third offense OUI arrest, then the Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles will suspend your license for eight years. This eight years will be stacked on top of the five-year suspension if you are convicted. Because of this, you need an experienced OUI attorney to review your case and defend your rights in court and at the RMV.
