Which Court House Location Will I Need?
There are two types of courts that deal with criminal cases: state courts and federal courts. In most instances, a charge of DUI, DWI, OUI or OWI will be brought in state court, at a county court location, as opposed to federal court. Drunk driving cases are usually only brought in federal court when the drunk driving arrest occurs on a military base, in a national park or on other federal property.

After determining which district you were arrested in and the court house location, it is very important that you contact an attorney that practices in federal court in that district.
In federal court, the laws are the same regardless of which federal court house location you go to. However, that is not the case in state court. Each state has its own drunk driving laws. Many even call the charges by different names: driving while intoxicated, driving under the influence, operating while intoxicated, operating under the influence.
The state court system is broken down even further by county; each county has its own county court location, and its own local rules for criminal cases involving drinking and driving, or driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Attorneys who practice in these counties will know all of the local rules and county court locations; many times, qualified DUI attorneys also know many of the prosecutors and judges in their counties. This kind of qualified DUI attorney gives you an edge when it comes to fighting the charges against you.
The information available on each county court house website will vary. Many counties will have detailed case information, all county court locations and directions, and other helpful links.
