DUI: Driving Under the Influence

This section outlines the applicable state statutes related to DUI cases.
Miss. Code Ann. § 63-11-30


DUI cases can be confusing at first.

If you are a new clerk, I recommend printing a copy of the applicable statutes and sitting down with your prosecutor to walk through them. They can often explain DUI laws in a way that is much easier to understand than reading the statutes on your own.

Once you begin working through these cases and understanding how the statutes apply, they become much easier to manage.
