Questions surrounding a viral video of a Michigan man’s driver’s license suspension hearing

There appears to be more to the viral video of a Michigan court hearing. Last week, a video of the hearing went viral online that appeared to show a defendant accused of driving with a suspended license. Local reports said the license was suspended due to a clerical error. MLive reports that Corey Harris’ license was suspended but was set to be reinstated in 2022. However, the Michigan Secretary of State never received the order. In Michigan, the Secretary of State’s office is responsible for issuing new and reinstated driver’s licenses. According to the report, state officials said Harris was responsible for providing the information to the Secretary of State’s office. “The typical process in these cases is that the Friend of the Court serves the resident with the Notice of Reinstatement, who then has 10 days to file it with a branch of the Secretary of State,” Angela Benander, communications director for the Michigan Secretary of State, told the outlet. “The Friend of the Court does not send the Notice directly to the Secretary of State.”
