What Is The Remedy For A License Suspension

Yesterday, we addressed what occurs to your license if a person suspected of DWI refuses to submit a breath or blood test. Over the next several days, we wil address how one contests his or her license suspension. Every person whose license is suspended is entitled to Adminstrave Hearing in front of an Administrative Law Judge.

One reason why it is so important to contact a Plano DWI attorney immediately is that there is a fifteen day rule that allows a person fifteen days to request a hearing in front of an Administrative Law Judge. Here is why this rule is so important for a person suspected of DWI to understand. If there is no request for a hearing within the fifteen days, then the license suspension will be effective 40 days after that person is arrested. If caught driving while a person's license is suspended, that is a criminal offense and a person can be charged with another crime.

Stay tuned as we continue to address this issue.
