Missouri DUI / DWI: Time served on refusal suspension for points?

There is no credit given for time from "points" to a refusal. DUI / DWI and refusal to submit to a chemical test are separate violations, even when arising out of the same incident, and, therefore, result in separate periods of revocation or suspension. Brown v. Director of Revenue, 772 S.W.2d 398, 400 (Mo.App. 1989); Greenwood v. Director of Revenue, 5 S.W.3d 604 (Mo.App. 1999).
