After a license
was suspended for a final determination
of child support delinquency pursuant
to section 16 of chapter 119A which
is permitted by C90 Sec. 22 so the
penalties detailed in Ch90 Sec. 23
would apply:
"...be punished for a first offence
by a fine of not less than five hundred
nor more than one thousand dollars
or by imprisonment for not more than
ten days, or both, and for any subsequent
offence by imprisonment for not less
than sixty days nor more than one
year..."
and
"...Upon a conviction of operating
after suspension or revocation of
license or right to operate under
the first paragraph, the registrar
shall extend said suspension or revocation
for an additional sixty days..."
Unless this is a CS issue, in which
case the suspension remains intact
and I believe the 60-day penalty is
tacked on following reinstatement
being permitted by the DOR:
"Upon exhaustion of administrative
remedies provided in section 16 of
chapter 119A, an individual aggrieved
by a final determination of the department
of revenue, as adopted or acted upon
by the registrar, may seek judicial
review of the final determination
issued by the department of revenue
in the court where the child support
order was issued, which has jurisdiction
to register the order, or which issued
the subpoena, warrant or summons,
within 45 days of the date of the
registrar’s notice to such individual
that his license, learner’s permit,
right to operate a motor vehicle or
certificate of motor vehicle registration
is subject to suspension, nonissuance
or nonrenewal; provided, however,
that a request for judicial review
shall be by action against the department
of revenue and not the registrar and
shall be accompanied by a copy of
the department of revenue’s final
determination. Such review shall constitute
the exclusive remedy for individuals
aggrieved by a final determination
as adopted or acted upon by the registrar
under section 16 of chapter 119A;
provided, however, that such review
shall not limit an individual’s appellate
remedies. The provisions of section
28 shall not apply."
Sec 28 details how you have a right
to appeal the registrar's decision
to suspend/revoke.
