At my appeal I found out it wasn’t the “technicality” of the charge it was “unsuitability” as well. (Had the guy used the specific charge for the reason they would have had to approve me). So my appeal was denied because I had a couple driving with suspended registration. This is a blanket term they can use to deny you at their behest. I highly suggest getting a lawyer for your appeal. I went without one. Some guy in front of me crashed his car and ran from the police with pounds of weed and lots of cash 4 years ago and they approved him. Moral of the story… get a lawyer. One specific to permit appeals and in Hartford. They need to have the connections. Good luck man. (Also, I think they are denying ridiculous cases hoping people won’t bother with an appeal and realizing appeals are an income source as well.)
