my brother was killed by a drunk driver that has no license and a history of dui what type of charge and jail time do this person face

The decision as to what charges to bring is made by the prosecutor's office for the county where the accident occurred. As to sentencing, the Court will determine that and will take into consideration the prior record of ofenses that the driver has had. The family of the victim is usually allowed to address the Court at sentencing time.

On a seperate note, there could be a claim for damages by your brother's family. If you or any famil;y member would like to discuss that I can be reached at 248-548-4000X15. My office is located in Royal Oak, MI.

I'm not a Michigan lawyer, but my research suggests that on the single charge of killing someone while driving while intoxicated, a person faces up to 15 years in jail, and a fine of up to $10,000.

Exactly what this person will get, I couldn't say.  There are a number of things that go into criminal sentencing.  There could also be other charges against the individual, and his prior record, if any, would also be a factor.
