I was recently arrested in PA for a 4th dui. I have not had an offense for 7 years. This 4th incident happened at a low point in my life. I have bipolar syndrome, am schizoaffective ( a thought disorder) and have been without proper medications due to my job loss. I drove on a revoked license and refused the alcohol test as well. What is the best plea bargain I can expect.
I have to get a public defender whom I haven't met yet as I do not have any money to pay for a private lawyer. I am 28, my first incidences happened in 2001 when I was first diagnosed with mental illness. I have not had an incident util I recently had to go off my medication due to money problems. I know this is not an excuse for doing the things I did. These are just my circumstances.
How do you recommend I plea? Should I go to trial?
