Exceptional Hardship Argument Saves Licence

Laura Newton attended at the Magistrates’ Court in Derby to represent a driver facing a totting up disqualification for reaching 12 points. In preparing the case, we were able to gather evidence to present to the Court to show that a 6 month disqualification would cause exceptional hardship for him personally due to health matters, and for his family members who rely upon him for childcare. The Court considered all of the facts of the case and chose not to disqualify at all, which was a great relief.
