A: You should be asking your lawyer this question. I usually advise people to send in the application and then review the evidence before paying for the device. But every case is different. You should really hire a lawyer if you have a pending DUI charge.

A: You have a lawyer. Ask him or her. It’s possible they’re expecting the suspension to get dropped. If it isn’t, and you don’t send in the paperwork pretty soon, you’re going to be without a permit for a while
