Is there a way to get a driver's license suspension lowered.?

So basically I had a traffic ticket nothing major, I threw a ciggerate butt out the window and was cited for littering. I was paying my fine online and at one point didn't realize I wasn't putting some info in right so my fine didn't get paid and a DL-38 was issued (I live in Pennsylvania), I got pulled over not knowing it and the state trooper took my license. I went to my District court and got everything handled, but was told I'd have to wait a year to get my license back. I did have another year tacked on because my great grandmother was sick and I wanted to go see her so I choose to take the risk and got hit for it. All my tickets from that are paid now and PennDOT says I can get a Occupational Limited License, but if there is a way to just get it fully restored or get the time frame reduced I'd love to know, any help is appreciated thank you.

    Not fully restored right now, no, of course not. Get the Occupational Limited.

    YOU need an attorney to get your story straight. What you claim here wouldn't get your license suspended in ANY state.

    The judge has discretion with the fine, or when amending to another charge... but the DOT dos not have that discretion. They follow it by the book.

    I can appreciate thinking outside of the box, sometime there is no alternative.
