Administrative License Revocation Office "ADLRO" Procedure

 

When you were released from custody, the arresting police officer should have given you a four page form. Under the Name and address of the ADLRO the form should have:

NOTICE OF ADMINISTRATIVE REVOCATION

 

Under your name there is a PART I. REVOCATION OF YOUR LICENSE AND PRIVILEGES

 

The box for Alcohol Related Offense or Drug Related Offense should be checked and whether you consented to be tested or "refused" to be tested, should also be checked.

 

If you had a valid driver's license and the police confiscated it from you under Part II. TEMPORARY PERMIT

the box: This IS a Temporary Permit and Your license is forwarded to ADLRO should also be checked. If so, you may drive any vehicle you were previously qualified to drive 24/7, without limitation. For an alcohol related offense, the temporary permit is 30 days and for a drug related offense, the temporary permit is 44 days.

 

What is Very important to understand is that the ADLRO has independent jurisdiction from a Courtroom Judge and the ADLRO operates using different rules, procedures, and standards of proof. Also, the ADLRO process can often be resolved before the initial court date if you have an attorney that understands the ADLRO process very well. The ADLRO must follow its own very specific procedures or the driver's license confiscated by police must be returned. The ADLRO process is often based upon paperwork and if there is an error in the paperwork an attorney who has dealt with ADLRO issues for over a decade knows what to look for and how to properly argue the technical issues before the ADLRO to obtain the best possible result.

Timing is a very important component of obtaining the best possible result from the ADLRO, so call today 875-6300 and speak to Attorney Graham Mottola.
