The ALR hearing can be handled by telephone or in person.
The telephone hearing is usually handled by affidavit of the arresting police office and affidavit of the State's witnesses
that have knowledge about the breath test or the blood test. Sometimes the arresting police officer is called to testify by
telephone. Alternatively the ALR hearing can be handled in person. Martin J. Rubin will subpoena the necessary parties including
the arresting police officer and if the officer fails to appear for the trial the case will be dismissed and you will not
lose your license. The burden is on the State to prove their case. The State's attorney must prove that their was reasonable
suspicion to arrest and that you either failed to take the breath or blood or if you took the test that you failed the test.
Your license is not suspended unless the Judge orders that the State wins
their case. This ruling does not occur until the hearing occurs and you can continue to drive your motor vehicle until the
hearing is held. If you win the hearing with the assistance of Martin J. Rubin you do not lose your license. If you lose the
hearing you can lose your driver's license for 90 days for a breath test or blood test refusal for a first offense or for
180 days for a breath test or blood test failure.
