Welcome to Fairfax Underground, a project site designed to improve communication among residents of Fairfax County, VA. Feel free to post anything Northern Virginia residents would find interesting.
Defendants charged with driving on suspended may be eligible for the Court's Driving on Suspended Program if their driver's license was administratively suspended by the DMV for non-payment of fines and costs, failure to obtain insurance, or based on civil judgment. Upon review in teh courtroom of the defendant's driving record, teh judge may continue the driving on suspended charge and refer the defendant to Court Services for entry into the Driving on Suspended Program. Court Services staff will determine the requirements necessary to reinstate the defendant's driver's license, monitor the defendant's progress toward this goal, and request continuances of the case as necessary so that payments may be made. Once the defendant provides reciepts and shows proof of reinstatement with DMV, Court Services will advise the Court that the defendant is in compliance and the judge will dismiss the driving on suspended charge. The defendant is not usually required to return to court and court costs are not assessed.
