§286-125  Discretionary revocation or suspension of license by a court.  In addition to the provisions for mandatory revocation of a license set forth in section 286-124, any court of competent jurisdiction may, in its discretion, revoke or suspend the license of any driver convicted of any felony in the commission of which a motor vehicle is used, or convicted of a violation of this part or of any traffic law or regulation of the State or any political subdivision thereof involving a vehicle in motion. [L 1937, c 234, §23; RL 1945, §7324; RL 1955, §160-56; HRS §286-125; am L 1970, c 164, §3; am L 1971, c 171, §2]

Case Notes

  As §291C-161(c) requires every person convicted under §291C-105 to be sentenced in accordance with §291C-105, trial court erred in sentencing defendant to a six-month driver's license suspension under this section; the plain language of §291C-105 required the sentencing court to impose the list of sanctions as specified under §291C-105(c), including a thirty-day license suspension for a first-time offender.  121 H. 117 (App.), 214 P.3d 1107 (2009).
