Legal Question in Criminal Law in Washington

Can you have your license re-instated before drug charges have been cleared? He was driving for a year on an unknown suspended license, was pulled over for that and was charged with possession. Can he get his license back before his court date?

Re: suspended License/drug possession

The short answer is yes, the pending charge will not prevent the reinstatement of his license. There is a chance that his license will be re-suspended, because of the charge, if it is a felony "involving" a motor vehicle. However, probably the charge does not fall into that category. If you have further questions or need assistance contact me directly.
