When filing for a restricted driver's license, what forms do I need and how do I obtain them?
When you file a petition for a restricted license with the circuit court clerk's office, you will also need a copy of your driving record from the Secretary of State. There is a filing fee. After the petition has been filed, you will need to follow the court rules and local circuit court procedures to obtain a temporary driver's license and an order to show cause. The order to show cause will be the notice of a hearing that you must send to the Secretary of State.

Preparation of forms, and the filing and serving of documents, is your responsibility. The court is not responsible for these activities. The circuit court clerk's office can assist you with the filing procedure and local forms, but clerks cannot give you legal advice. If you have questions about the law, please contact an attorney. If you have additional questions about the process, please contact the Jackson County Clerk’s Office at 517-788-4268.
