Missed DMV hearing for DUI in Van Nuys can i get a new hearing
Question: If I missed my DMV hearing is it possible to get it rescheduled or do I have to deal with not having a license for a whole year?
Answer: If you were given a 30 temporary license at the time of your arrest, and failed to request a hearing in time, or had a hearing scheduled and missed it (and you were not hospitalized at the time, or something of like that), then it will be unlikely that the DMV will schedule a DMV hearing at this point. Is this a refusal or under 21 years old case? Or is it a 2nd or more DUI offense? Depending on the situation, an acquittal can over ride the DMV ruling against your license. Feel free to contact me at 818-336-1384 if you would like to discuss your case in more detail to see if this would apply to you. Whatever the situation regarding the DMV, you should hire an experienced DUI attorney to handle the criminal portion of your case. (It would have been helpful to have an attorney for the DMV matter as well, if it is not too late for that….)
