Felony DUI cases are tried in Superior Court, not District Court. The court depends on where the underlying offense happened: Providence County (Garrahy/Licht), Newport County (Murray), Kent County (Noel), or Washington County (McGrath). The case starts at District Court for arraignment then binds over to Superior Court.
