License Suspension Is A Serious Issue

There are many ways to lose your driver’s license in Mississippi. Get too many traffic tickets and you could lose your license.

What Is Considered a Suspension in MS?

A suspension is a temporary loss of driving privileges. This loss can occur for a number of reasons, including:

• Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol
• Speeding
• Reckless driving
• Running a red light
• Failing to stop for a school bus
• Failing to pay child support
• Running over a highway worker

All of these offenses are serious and can lead to a license suspension. If you have been charged with any of the above offenses, you could be facing a license suspension. However, this does not mean that you are doomed to being stuck at home. You may be able to have your driving privileges restored if you hire an attorney.

How Can I Get My License Back After a Suspension?

There are a few different ways that you can get your license back after a suspension. These include:

• Negotiating a plea bargain
• Appealing a guilty verdict
• Challenging the license suspension
• Filing a petition for a restricted license

If you have been charged with a driving offense, you may be able to get your license back if you negotiate a plea bargain. However, this is only possible if the offense is considered a "wobbler." A wobbler is an offense that can be charged as either a misdemeanor or a felony. If the offense is a wobbler, you could be able to get your license back if you plead guilty to a misdemeanor.

If you have been charged with a felony and you are facing license suspension, you may be able to have your license privileges restored if you are granted probation. You may also be able to get your license back if you are granted a reduction in your sentence.

You may be able to get your license back if you are able to appeal a guilty verdict. However, this is only possible if the basis for the appeal is that there was a mistake in the way that the evidence was gathered or presented.

If you are facing a license suspension and you feel as if there has been an error in the way that your case has been handled, you may be able to challenge the suspension. You may be able to have your license privileges restored if you are able to prove that there was an error in your case.

You may also be able to get your license back if you are able to prove that you need to drive in order to work. In this case, you may be able to get a restricted license that allows you to drive to and from work.
