Re: suspension of drivers license
If your second DUI conviction occurred within a period of five years from your last DUI conviction, then the law requires that your driver's license or driving privilege be suspended for "not less than 5 years." Therefore, your 10 year suspension is legal. This exact issue had two different outcomes causing a conflict in the courts of the 2nd and 4th district. However, the Supreme Court of Florida has weighed in and resolved the conflict allowing a suspension of more than 5 years for this situation.
