I'm a little confused.... you're worried about going back to court and losing MORE privileges? Didn't you already get sentenced?

Typically, you get a DUI and you get a license restriction for a set period of time. In most cases that is pretty standard and unless there are very unique circumstances your attorney can exploit - that's it. You do the crime, you do the time until your time has passed and you can have your license reinstated.

Unless you violate that restriction, you're not going to lose more privileges.

I've had two DUIs. One with two very young children. The judge didn't really care about the fact that having to transport them without a car was a 'hardship'. I guess he thought that my drinking and driving had created my 'hardship'. I drove them around with my bicycle for 90 days.

I hope you keep things on the legal side, work your way through this, use these unfortunate circumstances as a catalyst for your higher good, and embrace sobriety.
