Declarations

When to Request a Declaration

Common examples include:

• A tampering event that is being disputed by the Monitored Client
• A disputed positive result, such as a claim that mouthwash or hand sanitizer caused a positive reading
• An account suspension tied to repeated non-compliance, where the reason for the suspension needs to be established for the court
• A claimed device malfunction that is disputed, such as an RMA evaluation finding the device in working order

A Declaration is available to anyone listed as a Monitored Client, Concerned Party, or Contact on the Monitoring Agreement. If you are a legal professional and your name is not listed as a Contact, instruct your client to submit the request.

Some jurisdictions require statements submitted to the court to be notarized rather than signed under penalty of perjury alone. Where required, Soberlink will provide a notarized version of the Declaration.

Fees

There is a fee of $250 for a Declaration, which is the responsibility of the Requesting Party. Declarations are typically completed within 3–5 business days of Soberlink's receipt of the request and payment.

This fee covers the written Declaration only. If a matter requires Soberlink's declarant to testify or be deposed regarding the Declaration, standard testimony fees and terms will apply.
