Unfortunately the VA DMV will require you to complete ASAP in order to have your license reinstated.
I have took the required Dui and counseling but the instructor will not sign off on my licence. She never called me in to take the final drug test or anything. I was in a drug program which was seperate from my classes but in the same building but she used my drug test from the program instead of... Read more »
This may depend on how West Va enters your information into their DMV system and where you got your DUI. But it would be easier if you transfer your license to VA BEFORE you WVa license expires.
The short answer is yes. When you’re convicted of a DUI in Virginia your privilege to operate any “motor vehicle” is suspended. As a result, you are prohibited from operating any vehicle with an engine including a boat.
You do not have to be convicted but sometimes this is the way that the probation officer will do it as long as you have let them know about the arrest. You are technically not in violation until you are convicted if the arrest is reported to probation as well.
found out when i called to get proof I had taken course to take to DMV. When I took VASAP, had no permanent addy and was living with various friends - no car, and no phone. Found out later someone called my dad to say there was a finding (I was 25 at time)- and asked him to have me call them.... Read more »
You just need to own up to it and if there is something outstanding get it taken care of. Hire a lawyer to go with you if possible and let them deal with getting you the best outcome possible. Good luck.
3 DUIs 6 years ago. Judge in Albemarle won't reinstate me. Army/Iraq veteran! I already petitioned and did pretrial with VASAP. Judge said no but that I could reset the docket as she didn't even know I'd be there that day.
I am not certain what you are trying to say. Is the issue getting your driving privileges reinstated? If so, you should hire a local experienced criminal defense attorney to help you. The first step is to comply with ASAP's requirements regarding getting your privileges reinstated.... Read more »

I got arrested and ge tried to get me to submit another breathalyzer back at police station but I... Read more »
What city were you arrested in? Unfortunately, you cannot make an agreement where you will not be assessed points. A DUI conviction not only carries with it demerit points but a 12 month license suspension, a requirement for ignition interlock, alcohol monitoring through ASAP and even a possibility... Read more »
And I blew a 0.10 on the breathalyzer. I'm wondering how screwed I am. Ps: I'm in the military. I bought an attourney for both occasions and I'm hoping for the best.
You'll probably go to jail for a bit and get a suspended license.
The answer truly is it depends. The facts from your underlying DUI will come into play, along with the facts of this offense. It is a class one misdemeanor and you can be sentenced to up to 12mos in jail and up to a $2500 fine. If you had a good behavior period on your underlying DUI, this could... Read more »
Does your fine have to be payed off for the statue of limitations to be in effect
In Virginia you can get charged with driving on a suspended license after a DUI anytime before you get your license reinstated. Once your license is reinstated then you're not driving on a suspended license. If you don't get it reinstated then you always risk driving on a suspended... Read more »
By statute, the judge will be required to sentence you to 10 days of mandatory incarceration IF you are found guilty of DUI with that elevated blood alcohol content.

1 year ends on the completion of 4/11/19. My DMV record shows my punishment thru 4/12/19. That makes my punishment 1 year & 1 day. I had a similar problem with dates getting my restricted license. It took a long time but the DMV saw I was correct. Am I correct now & should I get my regular... Read more »
You will need to pay the pay the reinstatement fee & have had 6 months incident-free on an interlock device before VA DMV will reinstate your full driving privileges. You can go to a DMV office on 4/11 but if they won't agree with you, you will be back on 04/12. Do you really want to... Read more »

I don't see any DUI question here the seems to be a landlord tenant issue.
Your outcome will depend on the facts of the case. Typically the bac is the biggest factor but a good driving record helps.
I'm not sure what you're asking. It looks like 12/15/18 is a date and not a code. 18.2-266 is the Virginia code for DWI.
You will want to contact an experienced lawyer in the court where you got charged.
Your outcome will be a function of your past record, the facts of your case and whether or not there are legal defenses.

It depends on how it was avoided. It is possible in some cases to avoid a checkpoint making a completely legal maneuver.
I’m 18 years old and had an open container in public when a cop saw me put it under my jacket and throw it. He made me admit guilt and now I have to appear in court next week. He mentioned a first offender program, but if I don’t do that and just plead guilty, does it go on my record forever?... Read more »
It's a criminal misdemeanor and you can't expunged those if you're found guilty. Even the first offender program would need to be discussed depending on the wording of the question on a background check. Get a good lawyer to help you they may be able to do better.
As long as you have a restricted license and are driving within your restrictions you're good to go. If you don't you will have charges if they catch you.
