Hello and thank you for taking the time to read my question. In March of 2013 I pled guilty to a dwls ticket, paid my fine and received no probation or any other requirements from the court. This is the only dwls conviction I have received. I would like to obtain my cpl but I am unsure if I can do to the dwls conviction. I checked the Michigan State Police website for the requirements but it's a little misleading (at least for me). I'm sure everyone that has a cpl in Michigan has seen this before but I will post it just for reference sake.
12. Have not been convicted of one of the following misdemeanors in the 8 years immediately preceding the date of application:
Failing to stop when involved in a personal injury accident, MCL 257.617a
Operating while intoxicated, second offense, MCL 257.625(9)(b)
Drunk driving, commercial vehicle, MCL 257.625m(4)
Reckless driving, MCL 257.626
Driving while license suspended or revoked, second or subsequent offense, MCL 257.90
I'm not sure if this is saying that you can not have a dwls in the last 8 years or if you can't have a second dwls in the last past 8 years. Anyone know the answer to this question?
My licence was suspened from 2005 when I was stopped and got a no proof ticket and didn't pay it so they suspeneded my licence. Got stopped again in 2013 when I got hit with the dwls.
Ok. So just to clear this issue up incase anyone else has this question. I just talked to the Oakland county clerks office (where you submit your paperwork for your cpl) and it turns out that the dwls 1st office doesn't restrict your right to obtain a cpl. Thank you everyone for your responses.
