This one is a little different than the usual out of state DUI question, so bear with me.
A friend living in Mass was arrested for DUI in Connecticut, completed an alcohol education program (AEP), and the charges were dismissed. Not a CWOF or a conviction, it was dismissed in CT after completing the program.
He is seeking to reinstate his drivers license in MA, but the MA RMV treats an out of state program or AEP as a conviction in Mass and put a DUI conviction on his record. He fought against this but upon seeing "AEP Completed" on the CT driving record, MA RMV went ahead and put it on.
Is this "RMV Conviction" considered an MA conviction misdafelony? Other than suitability from the C.O.P., should he worry about having his LTC revoked or denied upon renewal?
Thanks guys.
ETA - He is concerned because the RMV sent a letter to his house and his town police listing a "Conviction Date" on it.
