My question involves criminal law for the state of:
California
My fiancee is moving here from Wisconsin to marry me on Feb 20, 2010. From perusing other forums, I am under the impression that a marriage license and a letter of intent to support him and provide a place to live will enable him to transfer probation from Wi to Ca. immediately, assuming it is ok with his probation officer and California accepts him. What are the real ramifications of these offenses? His drivers license was revoked for 2 years, until 2011, and his probation extends for 5 years. How soon can he get a Ca drivers license to be able to work? He gave up alcoholism while imprisoned for the 5th offense, by the way, and became an active AA member who attends church regularly. Should he just not drive for 7 years until it drops off his DMV record and allows ins coverage to normalize? Does getting a California ID allow him to still get a job ? Don't employers just want a valid drivers license to be sure that one is not an illegal alien?
