What is OWI-3rd?
by David A. Cmelik Law PLC
Third offense drunk driving in Iowa is a Class "D" felony criminal charge punishable by at least 30 days in jail, no more than five years in prison, and fines ranging from $3,125 to $9,275. An OWI-3rd offense is a serious offense, a felony, and should not be taken lightly.
An Iowa-licensed attorney should be retained to review any and all written and electronic discovery/evidence to determine strengths and defects of the prosecution.
