Penalties for a first DUI conviction can be extremely difficult to deal with; however, if you are being charged with a second or third DUI, then you could face even harsher penalties. While nearly all DUI crimes are charged as class 1 misdemeanors, if you’re charged with a third DUI within a seven year period of the first, then you will be charged with aggravated DUI, which is a felony.
Regardless of whether you are facing charges for DUI (blood alcohol content between .08 percent and .14 percent), Extreme DUI (BAC between .15 percent and .19 percent), or Super Extreme DUI (BAC at .20 percent or higher), you will face harsher penalties with a second offense.
