GC 411. I87. ...

(b)...The license holder may request that the justice court in
the justice court precinct in which the license holder resides review the
suspension as provided by Section 411.180. If a request is made for
the justice court to review the suspension and hold a hearing, the
license holder shall surrender the license on the date an order of
suspension is entered by the justice court....
I kind of hoped that prior to having a civil sanction applied, one would be entitled to some kind of judicial hearing. Sounds like the best place to explain the situation, assuming the person can spare the time and legal representation. It's really the 2nd time being a criminal offense that would drive me to request a hearing. But, that's me.
