What is the penalty for 1st DUI in Florida?

A first time DUI offense carries fines and potential incarceration depending on your jurisdictions. Different counties, and different judges for that matter, have different norms when it comes to incarceration for a first time DUI offender. The maximum incarceration is 6 months. Get advice from a local attorney in your jurisdiction to inquire as to that jurisdiction's, or your judge's policy and practice on incarceration. In Brevard County where I practice, it is unusual (although not unheard of) for a prosecutor to ask for, and a judge to impose, jail time for a first time DUI plea with no aggravating factors. For a first time DUI, a fine of $500 to $1000 will be imposed. In addition to the fine, you will have to pay mandatory court costs.

Actually the penalty depends mainly on the number of previous offences and what exactly happened. For example the penalty of a first time offender is much less than the penalty of a third time offender.
