Las Vegas, NV asked in DUI / DWI and Traffic Tickets for California

Q: CA ATTY's :Is an SR22 start date the date of admin suspension received from the DMV or the date of court conviction?

Admin suspension effective March 20 2020. Date of court conviction 6/20/2022. Been carrying an SR22 since March of 2020 so the removal date would be Mar/April 2023 if it began at the DMV admin suspension. (All DMV fines and reinstatement fees have been paid)

Does the SR22 clock reset on the date of court conviction?

A: CALIFORNIA COURT IMPOSE 3 YEARS OF SUMMARY PROBATION ON MOST MISDEMEANORS.

IT SHOULD END AFTER THAT AND BOTH DMV AND THE COURT WILL SUSPEND THE LICENSE.

YOU WANT YOU LAWYER TO REQUEST THE COURT CONSIDER THE DMV SUSPENSION ALREADY IMPOSED..........WE USUALLY GET THAT.
