The ten day rule for a Sacramento DUI case applies to the DMV hearing.  The DMV can automatically suspend your license for an arrest for suspicion of drunk driving in the area of Sacramento.  This is completely independent of any court proceedings which could also result in suspension of your driving privileges.  In order to stop the automatic suspension on your driving privileges through the DMV following an arrest for a Sacramento DUI you must contact the local Driver’s Safety Branch and request an Administrative Per Se (APS) hearing where an employee of the DMV will hear the facts of your case and take into consideration a limited number of factors including probable cause for arrest and whether you were over .08% BAC at the time of driving.  The DMV employee who will hear your Sacramento DUI case is not an attorney and will act as both the prosecutor for the state and judge who determines whether the DMV will pursue suspension on your license.
