*See Court and Department of Licensing (DOL) Ignition Interlock Requirements, page 4.


     1Prior Offenses: Count all prior offenses where the arrest date of the prior offense occurred within seven (7) years before or after the arrest date on the current offense. RCW 46.61.5055 (14)(b); Seattle v. Quezada, 142 Wn.App. 43, 174 P.3d 129 (Div. 1 2007). "Prior offense" is defined by RCW 46.61.5055 (14)(a) to include-

     -> Original Convictions for the following: (1) DUI (RCW 46.61.502) (or an equivalent local ordinance); (2) Phys. Cont. (RCW 46.61.504) (or an equivalent local ordinance); (3) Veh. Homicide (RCW 46.61.520) or Veh. Assault (RCW 46.61.522) if either committed while under the influence; (4) Equiv. out-of-state statute for any of the above offenses.

     -> Deferred Prosecution Granted for the following: 1) DUI (RCW 46.61.502) (or equivalent local ordinance); (2) Phys. Cont. (RCW 46.61.504) (or equiv. local ordinance); (3) Neg. Driving 1st (RCW 46.61.5249, or equiv. local ord.), if the person was originally charged with DUI or Phys. Cont. (or an equiv. local ord.), or Veh. Hom. (RCW 46.61.520) or Veh. Assault (RCW 46.61.522). See Bremerton v. Tucker, 126 Wn.App. 26, 103 P.3d 1285 (Div. 2 2005); Seattle v. Quezada, 142 Wn.App. 43, 174 P.3d 129 (Div. 1 2007) (a revoked deferred prosecution only counts as one prior offense). If a deferred prosecution is revoked based on a subsequent conviction for an offense listed in RCW 46.61.5055 (14)(a), the subsequent conviction shall not be treated as a prior offense of the revoked deferred prosecution for the purposes of sentencing.

     -> Amended Convictions for the following: If the person was originally charged with DUI or Phys. Cont. or an equivalent local ordinance, or Veh. Homicide (RCW 46.61.520) or Veh. Assault (RCW 46.61.522) (1) Neg. Driving 1st (RCW 46.61.5249), (2) Reckless Driving (RCW 46.61.500), (3) Reckless Endangerment (RCW 9A.36.050), (4) Equiv. out-of-state or local ordinance for the above offenses. See, Walla Walla v. Greene, 154 Wn.2d 722, Ά 14, 116 P.3d 1008 (2005).

     2Mandatory Jail and Electronic Home Monitoring (EHM): If there are prior offenses within seven (7) years before or after the arrest date of the current offense, the mandatory jail shall be served by imprisonment for the minimum statutory term and may not be suspended or deferred unless the court finds that imposition of this mandatory minimum sentence would impose a substantial risk to the offender's physical or mental well-being. The mandatory statutory term may not be converted to EHM. Bremerton v. Bradshaw, 121 Wn.App. 410, 88 P.3d 438 (Div. 2 2004). Where there are no prior offenses within seven (7) years, the court may grant EHM instead of mandatory minimum jail. If there are prior offenses, the mandatory EHM may not be suspended or deferred unless the court finds that imposition of this mandatory minimum sentence would impose a substantial risk to the offender's physical or mental well-being. RCW 46.61.5055 (1)(a)(i), (2)(a)(i), (3)(a)(i).

     Mandatory Conditions of Probation for any Suspended Jail Time: The individual is not to: (i) drive a motor vehicle without a valid license to drive and proof of financial responsibility (SR 22), (ii) drive while having an alcohol concentration of .08 or more within two (2) hours after driving, (iii) refuse to submit to a test of his or her breath or blood to determine alcohol concentration upon request of a law enforcement officer who has reasonable grounds to believe the person was driving or was in actual physical control of a motor vehicle while under the influence of intoxicating liquor. Except for ignition interlock driver's license and device or alcohol monitoring requirements under RCW 46.61.5055(5), violation of any mandatory condition requires a minimum penalty of 30 days' confinement, which may not be suspended or deferred, and an additional 30-day license suspension. RCW 46.61.5055(11). Courts are required to report violations of mandatory conditions requiring confinement or license suspension to DOL. RCW 46.61.5055.

     3Mandatory Monetary Penalty: PSEA 1, RCW 3.62.090(1); Alcohol Violators Fee, RCW 46.61.5054; Criminal Justice Funding (CJF) Penalty, RCW 46.64.055 (Note: RCW 3.62.090 (1) and (2) apply to CJF penalty); Criminal Conviction Fee, RCW 3.62.085.

     Felony DUI and Felony Physical Control: With four (4) priors within ten (10) years, or one (1) prior conviction of Veh. Homicide or Veh. Assault (see above), a current offense is a Class C Felony punished under Chapter 9.94A RCW. "Within ten (10) years” means that the arrest for the prior offense occurred within ten (10) years before or after the arrest for the current offense. RCW 46.61.5055 (14)(c).

     Jurisdiction: Court has five (5) years jurisdiction.

     11. For some crimes, a deferred prosecution will enhance mandatory penalties for subsequent offenses committed within a seven-year period.

Alcoholism programs shall require a minimum of two (2) self-help recovery groups per week for the duration of the treatment program. The court may terminate the deferred prosecution program if I violate this paragraph.

     11. I agree that the facts as reported in the attached police reports are admissible in evidence and are sufficient to support conviction for the charged crime(s). I acknowledge that the above items will be used to support a finding of guilty if the deferred prosecution is revoked.

I understand that I may seek treatment from a public or private agency at any time, whether or not I have been found guilty or placed on deferred prosecution.

     14. If the court defers prosecution on any crime that would be a violation of a state law or local ordinance relating to motor vehicle traffic control, I will be disqualified from driving a commercial motor vehicle for the period specified in RCW 46.25.090, and if I drive a commercial motor vehicle holding a license issued by Washington State, I will be required to notify the Department of Licensing and my employer of this deferred prosecution within 30 days of the judge granting this petition. RCW 46.25.030. If the court grants this petition, I may not operate a motor vehicle on the public highways without a valid operator's license and proof of liability insurance pursuant to RCW 46.29.490.

     16. If I fail or neglect to comply with any part of my service plan, or with any ignition interlock device requirements, the court will hold a hearing to determine whether I should be removed from the deferred prosecution program.
