Q: Hello. My license are suspended and I am wanting to get them back so I can get to work and back legally!
My tickets are for: 3/13/06, 3/15/06 - those 2 r for speeding. 5/04/06, 8/22/08, & 3/28/16 are for DWLS. I've never had a DUI or anything like that. Just speeding. I was told by a receptionist at a lawyers office to ask for an abstract on most of these, since they are so old. How do I go about doing that the proper way? Thank you.
A: Each citation and/or arrest warrant must have the Sentence completed and all costs/fines paid in full. You will need to contact each Court Clerk for each misdemeanor, and get paid in full receipts from each Court. Then call the Dept. of Safety and see if there is anything else besides the reinstatement fee. You should be able to do this yourself, but sometimes a lawyer can get an old citation dismissed.
