If you've been charged with a DWI in Dakota County and choose to be released with conditions, you may be required to use an alcohol monitor until your case resolves. It's important to be aware of the costs associated with alcohol monitoring devices - which add up quickly!

Currently, the initial startup fee for an alcohol monitor in Dakota County is $154, with a subsequent weekly fee of $77.

In our analysis of 300 DWI cases within our company, we observed significant variation in case resolution times. The shortest time taken to resolve a case was just 6 days, a rare occurrence, with only 27 cases resolving in under 60 days. Conversely, the longest case took an extended 726 days (approximately 2 years), also a rare occurrence, with only 14 cases taking over 1 year to resolve. On average, cases were resolved in 172 days (about 5.7 months), with a median resolution time of 154 days (or 5.1 months).

Therefore, if you are arrested in Dakota County and choose the conditional release route, you can expect to incur costs of around $2,000 for the alcohol monitor throughout the duration of your case, much higher than the cost to post an unconditional bond.
