There needs to be a hearing on these devices. About 5 months (May 20th, 2019) into my Interlock device being installed, I failed a breath test DUE to a medication I took for a migraine that had sugar alcohol (mannitol) in it. The money alone spent on extending my VASAP due to this fail was outrageous. I contested it to the VASAP, in May when I failed, VASAP didn't notify me until June 20th, and didn't notify the courts until July 11th and then VASAP changed my hearing date twice- the initial July 19th and Aug 28th. Sept 17th was my court date, my case was dismissed BUT I was told I had to keep my device on until December 3rd To have passed my 6 month requirement.
May 20th was my violation date, VASAP changed it to JULY 3rd and filed the noncompliance for July 11th. My initial compliance hearing was supposed to be July 19th.
Fee's-$50 reset for May plus Interlock charges for August, Sept, November, December (105.81 each for a total of 423.00) due to VASAP delaying my Noncompliance hearing.
