Craig Rosenstein is sponsoring a CLE based on the two new bills that AACJ was instrumental in getting signed into law this session. One is entirely related to interlock and the other has significant interlock ramifications. Our own Steve Scharboneau actually did the heavy lifting and authored both of them. This CLE is a must for anyone practicing DUI defense in AZ. The law changes are significant and somewhat complicated.
