A formal hearing is required for a driver whose privileges have been suspended or revoked for an offense(s) involving a fatality or multiple DUI dispositions. A formal hearing request must be made in writing through U.S. mail. Faxes or email requests are not accepted. Petitioners are eligible for a subsequent hearing 90 days after their most recent hearing.
A hearing officer presides at a formal hearing at which both testimony and documentary evidence is heard. The officer is authorized to rule on all motions, administer oaths, subpoena witnesses or documents at the request of any party, examine witnesses and rule upon the admissibility of evidence. An order reflecting the recommendation of the hearing officer and the decision of the Secretary of State's office is issued. Decisions from a formal hearing are subject to the Administrative Review Law. #driverslicensereinstatement, #formal hearing,
