Re: driving with license suspended

Since the individual received deferred probation this was most likely someone's first offense for DWLS. This being so the punishment range is anywhere from 0 to 180 days in jail.

A lot depends on the judge and how the individual did on probation and what he is being revoked for.

Under certain circumstances one can have there probation extended so they don't have to serve jail time. Misdemeanor probation can be extended up to three years.

Bottom line is that you need an attorney. If I can be of any help feel free to give me a call.
