We have had a few calls today from people who did not instruct us to file an amended Petition and set a hearing date. Some have already received a letter from the OSMV saying they must get the interlock and pay for the RDP. We haven’t seen the letter yet. We have been told that they have 30 days or 60 days to get the interlock installed.
We know some lawyers were of the opinion that the Government wouldn’t get their act together and follow through. We thought that this was possible, which was why we listed an option 2 and an option 3 when they are just about the same. Nevertheless, our expectation was that the OSMV would send the letters out right away.
We also know that some law offices have decided to throw in the towel. As far as we’re concerned, we’ll contest every meritorious issue. We differed with the lawyers who did not include arguments on the merits of the case in the Petitions that they filed for their clients. If there were arguments to make at the review hearing and in the Petition on the decision of the adjudicator, we tried to outline them as best we could in the Petitions. Consequently we’re nowhere close to throwing in the towel.
If you received a letter from the OSMV saying you must get the interlock because you have taken no action to advance your Petition on the merits of the case, you must follow through with the steps that the Government demands so you can keep driving. If you want us to look at your case to see if anything can be done, give us a call.
