**Casenet 14HE-CR00305 and 14HE-CR00551 show previous convictions for Snethen for Driving While Intoxicated. Snethen also has two previous convictions for Driving While Suspended, 14HE-CR00472 and 14HE-CR00518. Those convictions make this new charge a felony. There are times when driving with a suspended or revoked license can lead to a class E felony, which is punishable by up to four years in jail and a maximum of $10,000 in fines.
These felony charges can occur when:
• The driver has been convicted of driving with a suspended/revoked license three or more times over the last 10 years
• The driver has been convicted of driving with a suspended/revoked license two or more times over the last 10 years and has a prior DUI conviction
• The driver’s license was revoked because of a second-offense DUI

However, the respondent in that case is listed with a year of birth in 1923, instead of 1992. There are instances when a Probation Violation charge would not be listed in Casenet.
