If it was the court that revoked your license, and if the court said you could get it back upon successful completion of all court ordered penalties, then your license would be restored by the court at that time. You could have your attorney file a motion with the court seeking a restricted license, by modifying the probation terms. If instead, the court never said the license would be restored upon completion, they you'd need to file such a motion for restoration of license. If serious about doing so, understanding there is no guarantee of success, feel free to contact me.

If it was the DMV ordering the revocation, then the same rule applies, your attorney could seek an order granting restricted license from DMV, through a hearing. Again, if serious, contact me.
