HB 754 Mississippi House · 2026 Regular Session

Implied consent; revise suspension period during appeals for refusal to submit to chemical test.

HB 754 modifies Mississippi's license suspension process for drivers who refuse chemical tests. It changes the rule so that the 30-day period during which a driver can legally operate a vehicle using a temporary receipt (issued after refusal) pauses ("tolls") while the driver appeals the suspension. This means the suspension period does not continue to run during the appeal process, allowing drivers to retain their temporary driving privileges until the appeal concludes. The bill directly affects drivers who refuse chemical tests and are appealing their license suspension under Section 63-11-23.
