Questions from drivers about Aggravated Unlicensed Operation in the Third Degree (AUO 3rd), answered by the Benjamin Goldman Law Office. For penalties, points, and defense options, read the Aggravated Unlicensed Operation in the Third Degree (AUO 3rd).
I have an old ticket (went to court for but still unpaid) of an unlicensed operator from a few years back. Just recently got pulled over again, resulting in AUO 3rd. Wondering what the "usual" or "standard" penalties would be? Also, how much does the fine for the AUO 3rd cost?. Am I better off spending the money for a paid lawyer or just going with a PD? Thanks!

There's no standard across New York State. Depends on a number of factors, including circumstances, history, the judge, the court, the prosecutor, and, of course, the defense attorney.
