AI Paralegal Answer
A DWI, or Driving While Intoxicated, refers to a legal offense involving the operation of a vehicle while impaired by alcohol or drugs. In the context of U.S. law, a DWI conviction can be classified as an "aggravated felony," which may have implications for immigration status, as seen in the case of United States v. Hector Parrales-Guzman, where the individual was ordered removed based on a felony DWI conviction under Texas law [4]. The provided sources do not offer a comprehensive definition of DWI or its legal implications beyond the context of immigration law.
