What is the name of your state? Colorado
My son was caught driving on a suspended license for the 2nd time in 3 months. Until now, he was supposed to get his license back next June 2007. But I've been told that if a person is caught driving on a suspended license for the 2nd time, the penalty is mandatory jailtime in the state of Colorado. Is this true?
My son's court date was December 1st, but he did not go because he had been told by some friends that he would be thrown in jail (so he avoided appearing in court altogether).
I probably need a lawyer at this point, but my real question is, is jail time mandatory when caught for driving under a suspended license for the 2nd time. There were no drugs or alcohol involved, and he was not speeding either. He just made a really stupid (wrong) choice. Please advise,
