Why your case is here

The Larson Justice Center at 46-200 Oasis Street is the Coachella Valley's main criminal courthouse, next to the Riverside County Sheriff's Indio jail (the John J. Benoit Detention Center) on Oasis Street. A DUI arrest anywhere from Palm Springs to Coachella — including La Quinta, Palm Desert, Cathedral City, and Indian Wells — is generally heard here. The valley's tourism, nightlife, and the springtime music festivals all drive DUI enforcement that funnels into this courthouse.

The 10-day DMV deadline

Your Larson Justice Center case is separate from the DMV's action against your license, and the DMV's 10-day window to request a hearing runs from the date of arrest — festival weekend or not. How the DMV hearing works →

How Ron defends a DUI at the Larson Justice Center

Coachella Valley DUIs often involve tourists, nightlife, and festival enforcement — and out-of-area drivers who need someone to handle the case for them. Ron works directly with you from his Irvine office, scrutinizes the stop and the testing, negotiates with the DA's desert team, and runs the DMV hearing alongside the court case, in English or Farsi.

Where will my Palm Springs or Indio DUI be heard?
Most Coachella Valley DUIs are heard at the Larson Justice Center, 46-200 Oasis Street, Indio. Palm Springs also has its own courthouse for some matters.
Does Larson handle festival-weekend DUI arrests?
Yes — DUIs from the Coachella and Stagecoach festivals and the valley's nightlife are heard at the Larson Justice Center in Indio.
I was visiting from out of town — do I have to come back for court?
Often your attorney can appear for most hearings in a first-time misdemeanor DUI, though for a DUI the court can require you to attend the arraignment, plea, or sentencing in person.
How do I protect my license?
Request a DMV hearing within 10 days of arrest — see our DMV hearing page.
