Question by love_66: Will I have to go to AA meetings after getting my 1st dui charge?
I live in Florida. I got a dui a few nights ago. I was just wondering in most cases if AA meetings are usually appointed by the judge? This charge was also followed by a hit and run charge. I think AA would be a good idea for me. Is there any way I can even request going to AA?
