The Illinois Implied Consent (Statutory Summary Suspension) Proceeding: Your Illinois drivers license (or your right to drive in the State of Illinois if you're not an Illinois licensed driver) was most likely suspended for anywhere from six months to three years for failing or refusing a chemical (breath / blood) test. This suspension is known as a statutory summary suspension. Read your paperwork carefully. This suspension typically begins on the 46th day following your arrest. If you would like to challenge this suspension, you or your attorney must file a Petition to Rescind Statutory Summary Suspension with the court. This petition / challenge applies only to your statutory summary suspension and has nothing to do with the Illinois DUI criminal charge (see below).
