In Georgia, if you are convicted of operating under the influence (OUI) for the first time, you can face a jail sentence of up to 12 months. However, the court may also impose other penalties such as fines, community service, or probation. Often, first-time offenders may be eligible for alternative sentencing options, such as a DUI risk reduction program.
