Ugghh, Ambien is a horrible drug. Ultimately it comes down to evidence, whether the blood draw was done properly, the amount of ambien in your system, performance of SFSTs, and whether there was a DRE.

The Interstate Compact governs this law and ultimately, the Probation Department approves whether you can leave or not - which would probably demand you transfer probation to another State.

Simple answer is no - the Courts cannot chose which specific agency. However, they will demand that the agency be certified in the State of Washington. Importantly though, if the Court does not agree with the agency's findings, they can demand another evaluation (but they cannot tell you... View More

The DOL is tough to deal with at the best of times. Obviously your question is old, but if you do not request a hearing within 20 days and the DOL received paperwork from the reporting officer, you have almost no chance at keeping your license. Sorry.

I am disabled now and rarely drink. My offense was considered a first offense and my suspension was for 90 days, but I was not able to afford insurance at the time, so I never applied to reinstate. NH says I must follow WA's requirements and show proof in order for them to reinstate me there.

I would contact the Washington DOL and see if you may apply for your license here, and what conditions must be met in order to do so. Try calling them at (360) 902-3669

No, unfortunately there is no way to legally transfer the venue of your criminal case to another state. You will need to come back to Washington State after you have moved to Hawaii to appear in court and get the case resolved. And on top of that, depending on the court and the policies for...
