Matteo v. California State Dep't of Motor Vehicles, A130542
Trial court's order directing the California State Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to grant plaintiff a restricted drivers license based upon his compliance with Vehicle Code section 13352(a)(3), as amended effective one day after plaintiff's commission of a drunk driving offense but before his conviction for the offense, is affirmed where the DMV's claim that applying the newly enacted section 13352(a)(3) to plaintiff was impermissibly retroactive is rejected because there has been no imposition of a new or different liability with respect to plaintiff's commission of a second DUI alcohol-only offense,
