License Suspension
Using a driver's license that is in its suspension period is a serious crime. As you will learn from doing online research, especially on this website, the legal laws that are involved are complex and are often changed or affected by decisions of the Superior Court and Court of Appeals.
If you are charged with driving while suspended or license suspension, you should right away meet with one of our DUI lawyers. As far as a DUI is concerned, the officer is needed by law to right away mail a copy of the filled out notice of suspension or revocation form and any driver license taken into possession, with a sworn report to the DMV.
The DMV automatically conducts a high end review that includes an examination of the officer's report, the suspension or revocation order, and any test results. If the license suspension or revocation is standing strong during the review, you may request a hearing to contest the license suspension or revocation.
You have the right to request a hearing from the DMV within 10 days of receipt of the driver's license suspension or revocation order. If the review proves that there is no basis for the license suspension or revocation, the action will be set aside. You will be told by the DMV in writing only if the license suspension or revocation is thrown out following the administrative check.
