1Opinion of the CourtJustice Regnier

¶1 Forrest Sanders appeals from an order of the Thirteenth Judicial District Court, Yellowstone County, denying his motion to hold the State of Montana in contempt of court for its failure to reinstate his driver’s license. For the reasons stated below, we affirm.

¶2 The sole issue on appeal is whether the District Court erred in denying Sanders’ motion to hold the State of Montana’s Department of Justice in contempt for its refusal to reinstate Sanders’ driver’s license after a six-month suspension and its decision to instead revoke his license for a period of one year.
