When Will the SOS Open Again?

The Michigan SOS is aiming to open again in early May.  However, they may only open on a limited or by-appointment basis and it remains to be seen whether the AHS (Administrative Hearing Section, which handles license revocation/suspension appeals) will be ready to conduct hearings.  Over the past several weeks, AHS has reached out to us and offered hearings to be conducted by Microsoft Teams technology.  However, that procedure brings its own set of challenges, such as: the inability to bring/provide documents; the difficulty in attorney-client communication during the hearing; sound/visual problems; and the fact that many people don’t have access to the technology.
