RELATED ISSUES
Suspension or Revocation Continues Until License Restored
In People v. Gutierrez (1998) 65 Cal.App.4th Supp. 1 [76 Cal.Rptr.2d 166], the
defendant’s license had been suspended for a period of one year for driving under
the influence. The defendant was arrested for driving after that one-year period had
expired. The court held that the defendant’s license remained suspended even though
the stated time period had passed because the defendant had not taken the steps
necessary to restore his driving privilege. (Id. at pp. 8–9.)
Privilege to Drive May Be Suspended or Revoked Even If No License Issued
A person’s privilege to drive may be suspended or revoked even though that person
has never been issued a valid driver’s license. (People v. Matas (1988) 200
Cal.App.3d Supp. 7, 9 [246 Cal.Rptr. 627].)
