TEACHERS/PROFESSORS FACING DUI CHARGES

TEACHERS & PROFESSORS CHARGED WITH A MISDEMEANOR OR FELONY DUI

California Commission on Teacher Credentialing is in charge of overseeing California teachers who are arrested and/or convicted of crimes. Teachers are very closely watched for any type of criminal arrest. We have seen teachers whose schools were notified the very next morning of a simple misdemeanor arrest for DUI. Teachers/Professors facing DUI charges need to act quickly in the event he/she were to be contacted by either the School Board or the School District; or worse yet, the California Commission on Teaching Credentialing, the latter of which affects not only your ability to work in your school district; but also your ability to work as a teacher at all. This is why Teachers/Professors facing DUI charges need to contact an attorney familiar with the California Commission on Teaching Credentialing.

Automatic revocations and prohibition from issuing credentials for the following charges

Upon learning of a criminal conviction the Commission can take any of the following actions:

A teacher who has his or her credential revoked may apply for reinstatement, one year after the effective date of the revocation. The matter is then considered by the Commission.
