Your Virginia DUI Lawyer wants you to be well informed. We are providing the Virginia Code (excerpts of the actual Virginia DUI law) to keep you abreast of the latest new DUI laws in the Commonwealth of Virginia.

Note: These excerpts are for informational purposes only. Please consult your Virginia DUI Lawyer for legal advice if you are facing issues with the dui law in Virginia.

§ 46.2-410.1. Judicial review of revocation or suspension by Commissioner.

A.

Notwithstanding the provisions of § 46.2-410, when the Commissioner orders a revocation or suspension of a person's driver's license under the provisions of this chapter, unless such revocation or suspension is required under § 46.2-390.1, the person so aggrieved may, in cases of manifest injustice, within sixty days of receipt of notice of the suspension or revocation, petition the circuit court of the jurisdiction wherein he resides for a hearing to review the Commissioner's order. Manifest injustice is defined as those instances where the Commissioner's order was the result of an error or was issued without authority or jurisdiction. The person shall provide notice of his petition to the attorney for the Commonwealth of that jurisdiction.

B.

At the hearing on the petition, if the court finds that the Commissioner's order is manifestly unjust the court may, notwithstanding any other provision of law, order the Commissioner to modify the order or issue the person a restricted license in accordance with the provisions of § 18.2-271.1. For any action under this section, no appeal shall lie from the determination of the circuit court.

C.

This section shall not apply to any disqualification of eligibility to operate a commercial motor vehicle imposed by the Commissioner pursuant to Article 6.1 (§ 46.2-341.1 et seq.) of this chapter.

(2001, cc. 739, 749; 2002, c. 811.)
