1. 25 years or over at the time of the refusal offence.
2. Date Refusal offence occurred before 11.10.2006
3. The date of exceed PCA offence was prior to 16.5.2002.
Two assessments the first 12 months prior to the restoration application. The 2nd within 28 days of the restoration hearing. It is possible to abridge the time between both applications and this is done by way of separate application to court (fee of $37). Application is made after the first assessment.
If the CRT grants the application a discretionary period of 6 months applies. So Magistrate doesn't have to impose license restoration.
Although the CRT may deal with the matter on the basis of the 10 year rule, the Magistrate will still be aware of the earlier offence in 2002. For this reason it is important to make sure the arguments against mandatory license loss are put to the Court as persuasively as possible.
For this reason it is a good idea to be represented.Statistics: Posted by Victorian Lawyer — May 16th, 2012, 12:11 pm
