There are considerable consequences as seen here.My final dui resulted in a 6 month jail term, $4000 fine.An additional fine of $14,495 for jail stay at $80/dayI worked in the kitchen every day while there preparing meals for the inmate population.When the intern aspect of the program starts in...
The statute you cite still only indicate what the state must do, not what a private school or hospital must allow. The state won't bar you obtaining or holding a professional license as long as you meet the criteria, but that doesn't mean any school or private employer can't have a higher...
cbg. I misread your response, my apologies.There is no statute that forces them accept me.I do believe the "spirit" of the az 13-907 is restorative in nature hence the phrasing "release from civil disabilities".Many upward avenues are "blocked" due to having a felony conviction, even Walmart...
In Arizona "serial DUI" would be 3 offenses within 72 months.That never applied to me.The aggravated circumstance was dui while vehicle should have been equipped with an interlock device.Not a very bright move obviously.I had some rough years, paid a pretty high price and would like to and will...
I agree.I will submit a letter to the human resources dept. wit any pertinent documentation and see if they are able to make an exception.I am not entirely convinced the program director has spoken to human resources at this point.There are obviously many people including medical...
I understand the statute, but I do not believe a DUI has a "reasonable relationship" with the occupation or the certificate" being sought.This was covered in post #4.I would also say that I did attend an inpatient rehab facility and have been sober close to two years now.
elle,
The statute I posted above is ars 13-904 which lists the suspension of civil rights and occupational disabilities that occur with a felony conviction, 13-907 restores your civil rights and lifts any related occupational disabilities which would include educational opportunities.As a...
cbg, I would love to see such a statute.BTW, there is no license involved with being a surgical technician in any state.Their is neither any direct patient contact
Their is no bar to any state license when the felony conviction has been "set aside", thats the whole purpose of the legislation...
I do not see where a DUI has a "reasonable relationship to the functions of the employment or occupation" , I am not applying for a driver position.If you were convicted of embezzelment, a notary would have such a reasonable relationship.
I recently went back to school and applied for Surgical Technology program.I have had a few DUI convictions (3) one of which was a felony.I completed my probation requirements and had the conviction "set-aside" in 2012 via ARS 13-907.The director of the program contacted me today stating that he...
