🚔 What happens after a DUI arrest?

From pretrial services and treatment requirements to sentencing and accountability, DUI cases involve much more than a court appearance.

This month's MUNI MINUTES explores how Missoula Municipal Court approaches DUI cases, highlights local conviction trends, and shares information about the programs and resources that support long-term community safety.
