Following a dui arrest, drivers in most states have a short period before they are supposed to appear before an administrative license branch for a Dui dmv hearing. In these hearings, drivers can argue their case, along with their attorney, for keeping their license following a dui arrest, as well as even potentially after a conviction. Commonly, restrictions and other limits on license privileges are standard for drivers that successfully contest a full revocation of their driving privileges. Even following a conviction or guilty plea, drivers can contact the DMV or BMV for an administrative hearing concerning obtaining a hardship license, which will allow them to use their vehicle for employment related functions and potentially other circumstances integral to an individual's life.
