49ers’ Demarcus Robinson Sentenced to Probation in DUI Case

He could have his record expunged after early probation termination, with league discipline still possible under the NFL’s personal conduct policy.

Overview

  • On July 9, Robinson pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor DUI charge and received 36 months of probation from a Los Angeles judge.
  • The sentence also includes a $390 fine and completion of court-mandated programs such as a Mothers Against Drunk Driving victim impact panel and alcohol-education courses.
  • Two related charges—driving with a blood alcohol level of 0.08% or higher and driving without a valid license—were dismissed under the plea agreement.
  • Robinson’s attorney says he has already satisfied most probation requirements and expects an early termination at 18 months, after which his conviction can be expunged.
  • The NFL has yet to announce any personal conduct policy sanctions, leaving the door open for fines or a possible suspension.
