If you’re facing Super Extreme DUI in Arizona
Home detention as part of the 9-day Extreme custody structure preserves work and family obligations during 7 of the 9 days. Only 2 days are served in physical custody. The home detention component requires monitoring equipment and approval from the court, which defense counsel coordinates as part of the plea structure.
Pre-completion of screening and counseling before sentencing demonstrates accountability and removes a future obligation from the sentence structure. When the court accepts pre-completion, the sentence does not include a separate counseling-completion deadline because the work is already done.
