In August 2015 I was convicted for Refusing to provide a specimen. This is my first offence. I pleaded guilty and represented my self in court. I was sentenced to 36mth driving ban, 12 week suspended prison sentence and community order of 200 hours. I have completed my rehabilitation course which means I receive my license back in December 2017, following a suitable medical assessment. I have completed the community order. This has all been a bit of blurry year for me and am really just getting to grips with all that has happened. I wrote to the CPS to receive my case files as despite being guilty I feel my sentence was very harsh, I've looked into how to appeal but don't think I can as obviously this is way past the 21 day deadline. I can't afford to hire a solicitor and pay a one off lump sum but really do want to challenge the sentence. Is there anything, anything I could do or advice you could offer on what my options could be? Many thanks in advance.
