QUESTION
Can I transfer my DUI case from CA to TX if I move for employment?
Asked on Jun 05th, 2013 on DUI/DWI - California
More details to this question:
I am awaiting trial on a DUI case with a possible Evading Arrest charge. I am currently unemployed and haven't been able to find work in CA, but I do have an job opportunity in Texas. In the event that I am found guilty of the charges, would I be able to transfer my sentence obligations to Texas? I am not trying to run away from any consequences, but I need to explore all possibilities. This would be my first DUI and I do not have anything else on my record. Your help is much appreciated. Thank you.

No. The case is heard where the alleged crime occurred. They would not make the witnesses travel 1,500 miles or so when they are all in CA.

I don't know California law, but Texas allows you to transfer out if longer than a year of probation.

Probably not, but it will be up to the judge.
