alcohol or controlled substances.

Center in Carlisle, Pennsylvania where she was requested to submit to a breathalyzer test.
5. Appellant used her best efforts to comply with the request from the breathalyzer
operator but was unable to provide a sufficient sample for the machine due to her lack of
comprehension of the directions given to her by the operator.
6. Appellant does not recall being warned that if she failed to comply with the request
of the breathalyzer operator that her license would be suspended for a period &one year.
7. On March 18, 2004, Appellee mailed an Official Notice of Suspension of
Appellant's driving privileges due to the chemical test refusal on July 3, 2003.
WHEREFORE, Appellam requests this Court to schedule a hearing on the propriety of
Appellant's license suspension and stay the imposition of the license suspension pending the
hearing and after said hearing deny Appellee's suspension of Appellant's driving privileges.
