I drove by there late last week and there were a few workers actually working on the building.
So who knows.

Thanks all for all of your help everyone.

I got this all taken care of.

The license was in the mail when I got home tonight!

My status just changed today to application completed.

I can't go to most of the links right now... or read that pdf. I will when I get home for sure thanks for them!

Any class A or B misdemeanor OR ANY violation under Texas penal code 42.01 (disorderly conduct) OR any domestic violence charge.

I just got off the phone with them this morning.
They said if it is not a "traffic" offense then I should probably put it on the application. What I am worried about is that because the citation says "family violence" and most people seem to think that is automatic domestic abuse. As defined by the ...

First. Hi everyone.
Second.
About two years ago I recieved a class C misdemeanor for "assualt - family violence" Before I go any farther I want to say... no I do not beat my family members... My room mate was drunk and I tried to keep him from driving and I grabbed him on the shoulder so he called ...
