What is the name of your state? GA
A judge ordered less than the statutory minimum sentence regarding a license suspension for DUI. What it looks like at first is that he used a sentencing form from back in 2001 (before the newest revision), but the form has 2006 written all over it and it doesn't even jive with the 2001 laws in some instances. the form cites georgia code xx-xx-xx, but when you look up the code, it spells out the current minimums without room for interpretation. I doubt they could be using an old form for the last 5 YEARS without anyone catching it, especially if they are taking the time to print 2006 on it. Also, getting my license back (after dui school/counseling) is a condition of my probation. I'm sure the dmv will give me flack because the statutory minimum hasn't passed yet.
I guess my question is... If the judge orders me to get a work permit, but the statutory minimum and the dmv say I have to wait...... Who's more right? If I don't get a work permit (which I need fairly badly) I'm actually violating probation. What gives?
