What is the DMV hearing?
In the state of California, following a DUI arrest, a defendant will be
facing two separate processes – the criminal trial and the administrative
proceeding held by the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV).
The DMV hearing does not addressed the criminal charges, but will rather
address the issues pertaining to your driving privileges. It will only
deal with the circumstances of the arrest – not whether or not you
are actually guilty. During this hearing, it will be determined whether
or not you will be allowed to keep your driver's license.
While you are not required to partake in the DMV hearing, it is important
to realize that if you forgo this process that you will experience an
automatic driver's license suspension. To protect this right and to
