- Q. Unable to register for DUI classes due to financial constraints in CA.
- A: While you may be able to arrange for a lower payment schedule based on a financial hardship, that you probably cannot get reinstated without completing the class is likely another financial hit to you, so arranging a lower payment schedule would likely make it more advantageous for you to try to make such an arrangement with the program.
As Mr. Arrasmith suggested, you may also be able to petition the court; however, if there is a warrant for your failure to complete the class, you may will also need to address that as well.
