Review Hearings For Administrative Suspensions And Disqualifications
Under s. 322.2615 and s. 322.64 of the Florida Statutes, the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (DHSMV) is authorized, upon the request of the driver, to conduct formal or informal reviews concerning amending, sustaining or reversing administrative license suspensions and disqualifications. These are separate from any criminal proceedings, and any decisions of the department in this regard as well as any written statements for the review may not be considered in the driver's criminal trial for DUI (driving under the influence.)
