This Act, being deemed of 5 21 immediate importance, takes effect upon enactment. 5 22 EXPLANATION 5 23 The main element of this bill is contained in section 3, 5 24 which strikes Code section 321.209, subsection 8. This 5 25 provision, which permits the administrative revocation of 5 26 driver's licenses after certain drug-related convictions, was 5 27 recently held to be unconstitutional in Dressler v. Iowa 5 28 Department of Transportation. Sections 2 and 4 through 11 of 5 29 the bill amend other Code sections that rely on this Code 5 30 section or an administrative revocation following a conviction 5 31 or adjudication for an offense not directly related to motor 5 32 vehicle safety. Sections 1 and 12 add provisions that require 5 33 a juvenile court to order the revocation or suspension, or the 5 34 district court to order the revocation, of the driver's 5 35 license at the time of the conviction for the underlying 6 1 offense, in order to comply with the reasoning of the Dressler 6 2 court regarding a constitutionally permissible procedure for 6 3 the license revocation formerly done under Code section 6 4 321.209, subsection 8. 6 5 Section 13 makes this bill effective upon enactment. 6 6 LSB 4396HC 76 6 7 jls/jj/8
