    I'd say the first thing this guy should do if nobody in Florida wants to fix the obvious mistake they made is to look up Mark Levin on his website online, call his show, send an email. I'm sure he'd have a field day with this one.

    No idea on the legal side, but I wonder if you can circumvent the whole legal issue by filing a small claims case? Much quicker, cheaper, and anyone with half a brain can look at this case and determine Mass is wrong.

    Second, if you don’t feel “any” driver will be trustworthy, jump in the truck with them as a rider. Keep the business rolling, you need the income.

    Wait wait wait ....


    So let's get this crap straight ...

    You lived in that god forsaken state from '78-'99?

    Right?

    You moved to Florida in '99 and then got two dui?

    Your dui happened in Florida, no where else.

    Right?

    Now you got your cdl in 2019 and have been clean ... right?

    So this is where I see the problem, mass doesn't have jurisdiction over this matter because you are not a citizen is mass for 21 years. If you were a citizen when the duis took place, then maybe.

    Their claim is invalid and really this is a federal matter, not a state one because they are screwing with anither state's citizen.

    Florida is the state you need to deal with, not mass, Florida issued the cdl, they are the only one who can reinstate it and they are accepting a false claim of another state that you have not been a citizen of 19 years.

    Get a Florida lawyer, also talk to a lawyer about suing mass for damages in federal court.

    yep youve got that correct,
    mostly, i do have to have a mass laywer to go to the rmv appeals for me, he agrees, mass has no right to do this, yet they are they only ones that can change it, florida sees this as an out of state suspension and say i must deal with mass, even though i dont live there, not licenced there, didn't get dui there, and didnt get my CDL there.....

    Actually Mass had the right to do it, but they had an obligation to do it correctly. I would call them Monday and get as high up the chain as you can and ask why they coded it as a W40 and not a W01. If they make that change and send a clearance letter you will be good to go. When they coded it a W40, Florida had no choice in what to do.

    i shared this thought with my lawyer and he doubts they will do this, i must go through the appeal process.
    when i call i always get the same girl, she is less than kind, and would disagree, she will say i dont know what i am talking about and am disqualified for life countrywide....
    and mass doesnt have the right, they were allowed access to my fl dmv records for "historical purposes only" when i returned to mass in 2009-2011, the issue is mass just got its nationwide computers update and received my record from fl. from there a computer automatically assesses the disqualification and the rmv staff cant touch it... pure bs

    Mass has most likely cracked down due to them mishandling the russian hotshot who had a DUI days before killing the bikers.

    1) In a nutshell, Massachusetts will burn people from BOTH the very past to the most current time, to BOTH save themselves and look good in the process.
    2) The people in charge, in the state of Massachusetts, simply do NOT have the will or desire to take the heat for their past mistakes, or any bad decisions made to cover up those mistakes. It is a whole lot easier for them to rake people through the coals, to save themselves.

    God bless every American and their families! God bless the U.S.A.!
