 How
to get your License
Reinstated After a Failure to Appear Suspension-
"09" Suspension (625 ILCS 5/6-601)
This is the most common reason for a suspended license violation
in this court. This suspension occurs in those instances where
a defendant has given his or her driver's license as bail or executed
a promise to comply when issued a traffic ticket and has failed
to attend court or respond to the citation. The suspension remains
in effect until the driver goes to court and responds to the previously
issued citation and the driver record is updated.
In order to reinstate your license, you must resolve your
old ticket(s).
