The prior DUI's will not count as prior offenses for purposes of increasing the mandatory penalties on the new one (since they are more than seven years old). However, the court and prosecutor will strongly consider the old cases when negotiating plea bargains, determining the sentence, and deciding how much alcohol treatment and probation you must undergo.
