Re: arrested for driving suspention first time

NOTE: This communication is not intended as and should not be interpreted as legal advice. Rather, it is intended solely as a general discussion of legal principles. You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

This is a serious offense. Many judges are incarcerating people who are driving on suspended licenses. Besides for not paying the fines, you probably have exceeded the point allocation with this new citation.

You should retain a traffic attorney to represent you in this matter in order to get the most favorable outcome. Even if you have no money, you need to find the way to pay an attorney. Being in jail will cost you much more.
