Christopher Maxey, 34, of Alliance has been bound over to District Court stemming from a DWI arrest that occurred September 21.

According the official complaint, Maxey was driving at a high rate of speed in the area of Rock Road and County Road 62 when he wrecked the vehicle of James Dryden.

Dryden informed police that he did not give Maxey permission to use his vehicle when the incident occurred.

Maxey has been previously charged twice with DWI, therefore his third offense will be a Class IIIA Felony if convicted. He is also facing Criminal Mischief-Property Damage >$1500, a Class IV Felony because of the damage to Dryden’s vehicle; Driving Under Revocation, 2nd offense, a Class II Misdemeanor; Willful Reckless Driving, a Class III Misdemeanor; and Unauthorized Use of a Vehicle, a Class III Misdemeanor.

Maxey is scheduled for a Pre-Trial Conference on January 2, 2013 and the case is set for Jury Trial to begin January 28, 2013. He could face up to 10 years in prison, $20,000 in fines, or both, on the felony charges alone if convicted. The misdemeanors range from three to six months in jail, $500-$1000 in fines, or both, if he’s convicted on all charges.
