In the state of NJ can you be fired for a dwi if you are a state employee?

It depends on the circumstances of the job and what the punishment for the DWI was. I do not know of any regulation that says that a DWI conviction is an automatic bar to public employment.

you can be fired for a variety of reasons.....and an arrest for DUI could very well qualify for termination
