I am a lawyer in CT and practice in this area of the law. Most DMV databases are able to pull up infractions that occurred in other states. In addition, the DMV may, as a general procedure, run the license in IL to determine what the record looks like. Assuming all the IL tickets have been paid and that your IL license is in good standing, you should not have a problem obtaining a CA license.

Are you a lawyer?
