Default driving without a license

Hello,

Several years ago, I was pulled over for driving without a valid license. At the time, I was going to be losing my license due to being a habitual violator with too many moving violations within the course of a year. So I had to surrender my license, and I had a temporary license issued to me until the end of the year(which essentially was a piece of paper with my credentials). The only problem was, that I didn't have that piece of paper with me when I got pulled over. The cop went easy on me and didn't tow my car and only issued me the ticket for driving without a license. Now, I could have easily went to court on the court date and shown my paper and been fine, but I made a monumental mistake of missing my court date altogether. As a result, a warrant was issued for my arrest. Once I found out about it, I turned myself in and spent the night in jail. Too worsen the situation, in the morning when I spoke with the judge and plead guilty (honestly, I was nervous, and afraid somehow thought I would spend more time in jail, so I just pled guilty). It was a series of stupid mistakes for which I regret. At this point in time I am still wondering, since I have the proof that shows I was licensed during the time I was pulled over, do I have any recourse to have this overturned, or removed from my record?

You need to speak with a attorney that handles traffic violations in your state, I'm sure this is some type of appeal you can do regarding this.

Did I read correctly that this happened a couple years ago? If so, any appeal rights you had have run. You can try to speak with an attorney regarding expungement. Have you browsed through the information in LawInfo's Free Legal Resource Center to learn more about your issue yet? See: http://www.lawinfo.com/consumer.html. You can certainly try to speak to a lawyer to determine what legal options may be available. In the meantime, you may be able to learn more on your own. Search the "Free Legal Resources" tab, or browse the Consumer Resources. Good luck.
