to suspension of driving privilege.

A. 1. Following receipt of notification and a request for

driving privilege suspension from a municipal or district court

clerk as provided for in Section 1115.1 of this title or Section 1

of this act, Service Oklahoma shall:

a. suspend the privilege of the person to operate a motor

vehicle in this state; or

b. request suspension of the driving privilege of the

person in the state which issued the license as

provided by the Nonresident Violator Compact.

A person whose license is subject to suspension pursuant to this

section may avoid the effective date of the suspension or, if

suspended, shall be eligible for reinstatement, if otherwise

eligible, upon meeting the requirements of subsection C of this

section.

2. Service Oklahoma may decline to initiate such suspension

action if the request is discovered to be improper or questionable.

3. Service Oklahoma shall not be required to issue more than

one suspension of the driving privilege of a person in the event

multiple requests for suspensions are received from a court clerk

based upon the failure of the person to appear at a particular time

and date on multiple charges.

B. Following receipt of a request from another jurisdiction for

the suspension of the driving privilege of an Oklahoma resident as

provided by the Nonresident Violator Compact, Service Oklahoma, if

the request appears to be valid, shall initiate suspension of the

privilege of the person to operate a motor vehicle in this state.

If suspended, such suspension shall remain in effect until the

person meets the requirements of subsection C of this section.

Oklahoma Statutes - Title 22. Criminal Procedure Page 432

C. 1. A person whose license is subject to suspension in this

state pursuant to the provisions of this section may avoid the

effective date of suspension, or if suspended in this state, shall

be eligible for reinstatement, if otherwise eligible, upon:

a. making application therefore to Service Oklahoma, and

b. showing proof from the court or court clerk that the

person has entered an appearance in the case which was

the basis for the suspension action and was released

by the court as provided for by the Nonresident

Violator Compact or consistent provisions, and

c. submitting with the application the fees, as provided

for in Section 6-212 of Title 47 of the Oklahoma

Statutes. The fees shall be remitted to the State

Treasurer to be credited to the General Revenue Fund

of the State Treasury;

2. Upon reinstatement, Service Oklahoma may remove any record

of the suspension and reinstatement as provided for in this section

from the file of the individual licensee and maintain an internal

record of the suspension and reinstatement for fiscal and other

purposes.

D. Any person whose driving privilege is suspended or subject

to suspension in this state pursuant to the provisions of this

section, at any time, may informally present specific reasons or

documentation to Service Oklahoma to show that such suspension may

be unwarranted. Service Oklahoma may stay the suspension or

suspension action pending receipt of further information or

documentation from the person or from the jurisdiction requesting

such suspension, or pending review of the record, or other inquiry.

If Service Oklahoma determines the suspension is unwarranted, the

suspension action shall be withdrawn or vacated without the

requirement of a processing fee and a reinstatement fee and Service

Oklahoma shall accordingly notify the jurisdiction which requested

the suspension. If, however, the request for suspension appears

valid, Service Oklahoma shall proceed with suspension of the driving

privilege of the person and the person shall have the right to

appeal as provided for by Section 6-211 of Title 47 of the Oklahoma

Statutes. Provided, however, the court shall not consider

modification, but shall either sustain or vacate the order of
requested

the suspension. If, however, the request for suspension appears

valid, Service Oklahoma shall proceed with suspension of the driving

privilege of the person and the person shall have the right to

appeal as provided for by Section 6-211 of Title 47 of the Oklahoma

Statutes. Provided, however, the court shall not consider

modification, but shall either sustain or vacate the order of

suspension of Service Oklahoma based upon the records on file with

Service Oklahoma, the law and other relevant evidence.
