Is a hold the same as a suspended license?

I'm not sure the hold is the same as suspended.

I had my CA CDL put on hold and was able to continue to operate until the problem was cleared.

I had self certified online through my health provider and had the online receipt. The DMV now wanted my medications listed in the explanation for any health issues in addition to being listed under medications. The hold happened 4 months after the fact.

 

I Think a “hold” means the license can not be renewed until you pay the tickets ?


Must have Been minor tickets without a required court date ?
Usually if you refuse to show up for the court date and don’t pay the ticket , they issues an arrest warrant for failure to appear .
