An extreme DUI in Arizona is when you blow a .15 or greater and is frankly quite punishable due to degree of risk you face in that situation. Jail time is from a minimum of 30 days to a maximum of 6 months, the fees to the state are roughly around $1,500, you're required to have an interlock device on your vehicle, and license suspension is up to 90 days with a provisional work permit license available after 30 days. The extent of the charges are relative to your specific situation and details of the case. However, new Arizona Laws effective 9/6/08 dictate for even 1st time Extreme DUI Charge, no jail time can be extended and a minimum of 30 days must be served.
