Common Sense Lesson #139
Well the Common Sense Lessons really don’t get any more basic than this - don’t show up to your DUI hearing drunk.
Seriously, people, it’s not a hard one to commit to memory.
It seems that the memory of Paul Zeigler must not be so good, however. He rolled into court on March 26 for a preliminary hearing relating to a DUI charge he picked up last December and sumbitch if he wasn’t drunk. And, you know, since he drove himself to court, the cops tested his blood-alcohol level. It was over the limit and Zeigler wound up getting himself a second DUI charge.
Maybe he’s just working towards completing a whole set of DUI charges!

I have had more clients than I care to admit that have done this exact same thing. One told the judge to go f&*k himself but it came out all discumbobulated and no one could understand what he was saying. Needless to say he was denied probation
