If you have been arrested for DUI in Snohomish County for a DUI by a Washington State Trooper or Deputy Sheriff you may immediately wonder when you'll appear in court. The answer is simple: you will not appear in court for many weeks. Unlike unlike counties such as Island County or Skagit County, in Snohomish County the DUI report is completed by the Trooper or Sheriff and turned over to the Snohomish County Prosecuting Attorney's office for review and filing. The Prosecutor's office will then file charges against you later and you will only find out about your court date by way of a summons in the mail - which will arrive 4-8 weeks later. In comparison, Island County DUIs or Skagit County DUIs are immediately filed and you'll be required to appear in court within several days. Word to the wise.
