Understanding OWI Bond Conditions in Genesee County's 67th District Court

6/23/2023

 

​Arrested DUI Genesee County Grand Blanc Flint Mt Morris Flushing Burton - Drunk Driving

If you or a loved one are faced with an OWI (Operating While Intoxicated) or drunk driving charge within Genesee County, understanding the bond conditions as dictated by the 67th District Court is key to navigating your case. The court, overseen by the Honorable Judges David J. Goggins, Christopher R. Odette, Jessica J. Hammon, Jennifer J. Manley, Vikki Bayeh Haley, Mark C. McCabe, William H. Crawford, II, Herman Marable, Jr., and G. David Guinn, maintains a stringent set of rules for public safety.

The 67th District Court caters to a wide range of OWI charges, which includes impaired driving, operating while intoxicated, super drunk offenses (BAC of .17 or higher), second and third offense OWI, zero tolerance for minors, and child endangerment. Each category carries its own set of bond conditions and the court may require some form of alcohol testing.

In determining bond conditions, the court considers a variety of factors including but not limited to, your prior criminal record, history of substance abuse, seriousness of the charge, employment status, and community ties. The court has a range of methods for alcohol testing that could be part of your bond conditions:

Preliminary Breath Tests (PBTs): This might require you to appear at a testing facility for breath tests regularly.

Transdermal Alcohol Tethers: This wearable device continuously tests your sweat for the presence of alcohol.

In-Home Breathalyzers: Devices for in-home testing that digitally transfer results to the concerned authorities.

Ignition Interlock Devices: These are installed in your vehicle and require a breath test before the vehicle can start.

Urine Tests (EtG or EtS): These tests can detect the presence of alcohol up to 72 hours after consumption.

Understanding the process can make the daunting experience of an OWI or drunk driving charge a bit more manageable. However, legal counsel is always advised for the best outcomes. It's not just about navigating the legal landscape, but also about presenting the best possible defense in any city or town within Genesee County under the jurisdiction of the 67th District Court.
