You can request a hearing on the license revocation within 15 days of arrest or it is waived. If no hearing is requested, the suspension starts 45 days after arrest.

What to expect at admonishment hearing for probation violation

Richard Keith Oliver
Answered by attorney Richard Keith Oliver (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at The Law Office of Rick Oliver
The answer depends on a couple of things: (1) what court are you in? (2) is there a non-alcohol-related explanation for the high blow into the GI?  Don't make the mistake of thinking that compliance with all other terms will do you any good. As a particularly crotchety old Judge growled at me once: "It only takes one [violation]!"  Your probation can be perfect. But, if the reason your GI blow was high was because you were drinking, you should expect bad things to happen with your probation.

What’s going to happen?

Answered by attorney Tristan Nicolas Legrande
DUI/DWI lawyer at LeGrande Law
It will be up to the Judge, ultimately. If you violate your probation by - for example, being convicted of commiting another crime (public intoxication in your case), the state can file a motion to revoke your probation. The felony probation would mean you could be revoked and sentenced anywhere within the punishment range for that offense. So if the offense were, for example, a 3rd degree felony, you could be revoked and sentenced from 2 to 10 years in prison (even if your probation is shorter). These are all what COULD happen. You also could have your probation reinstated or extended with additional conditions. Whats IS going to happen? Impossible to predict. If you want to increase your chances of staying on probation, hire an attorney to represent you on the probation revocation.  Good luck!
