It does not matter what state your license is from for a DUI revocation. However, a couple of things must happen in order for you to lose your license. If you took a blood test, your driving privilege will probably be valid until the results come back. They will send a notice to either the last address you gave the police or the address on your license. The notice is to request a hearing to preserve your driving privilege. You will have 7 days from the date of the notice to request the hearing. If you do not request a hearing within 7 days of receiving the notice, you will lose your driving privilege automatically. If you request a hearing, your driving privilege will remain in effect until your hearing date or you hear otherwise from the DMV.

What does it mean if a probable cause charge is filed but the judge doesn't sign it?

Gary A. Russell
Answered by attorney Gary A. Russell (Unclaimed Profile)
DUI/DWI lawyer at Clos, Russell & Wirth, P.C.
Not sure I know what you are referring to. The prosecutor decides whether to bring a charge, not the judge. If you were charged with a felony, a preliminary examination (aka probable cause hearing) must be held. If the judge determines there is not probable cause, s/he will dismiss the charge.

DWI first offense--my son got this last week--i guess my question would be if their is any way that we as parents can get this off his record

First off, I am so sorry this happened.  It is always difficult for a parent to see their child go through the system, especially when he shows so much promise in completing his education.  Above all, your son's goal should be keeping it off of his permanent record.  The first step is to see if the arrest is a case the government can win.  A good criminal defense lawyer may be able to get the charges dismissed entirely.  If that isn't an option, there is a program called "DWI Pretrial Intervention" by which your son would be supervised for a year and, if he completes everything he is required to complete, the charges will be dismissed at the end.  Not everyone qualifies for this, so it is important to have a lawyer who understands the ins and outs of the program.   All of these options will require an excellent criminal defense/DWI lawyer familiar with the practice where your son is being charged.  Many of us will offer you a free consultation for your sons case, and will give you advice on how to proceed.  Meet with a few lawyers and hire the one you believe is best suited to keep your son's record clean. Good luck, hope I helped! Regards, Cordt Akers Criminal Defense Lawyer
