There is this common belief that minor errors in traffic tickets and citations are defenses to crimes. Not really. Unless there is another person who goes by your husband's name, has the dob they listed and drives a similar car...it's not really going to help him out. There may be other ways of challenging the dui, but a wrong dob doesn't help him out much.
