Also being that there were more than two squad cars involved in this incident you may wish to consult an attorney on the likelyness you could pass this off as entrapment in court, all things considered you need to know how you intend to proceed before you show up at jp court... |
+1
will definitely adhere to an attourney |

Pretty sure it's, Slow down or get over. Not "GET OVER".. so I think u could get this dropped quite easily. |

and if I'm not mistaken, I think I did hear her say "AND you failed to slow down under 60mph"...which makes me wonder about "slow down" or "get over" :D |

Maybe, but they didn't put it. It just says he didn't pass properly.. I dunno.. guess I could be wrong :).. was fun to think about though! |

I really doubt it had anything to do with speed. The fat ass essentially needed to meet her quota for the month, and so she pulled my ass over.
What I should have done is do what the first reply to this thread says.....called her a cunt.
Oh well....I hope $100 takes care of this bull. I really think it's ridiculous, this damn law they passed. I think it's obvious that most Americans know that killing ANYBODY in general is improper. That doesn't mean you have to ticket every ing human being that passes a cop car. |

Agreed. I can't believe people actually try to run cops off the road and .. I'm crazy but.. not that crazy lol |

| part of being a citizen of the US is knowing and understanding the laws. things like this can be avoided if you were a little more diligent in keeping up with all the ways the government tries to you...in the ass....sans lube. |

Haha, that's fubar dude...
Personally I do think it's a douche law, the only time I've ever even seen this law put to practice was once when I was pulled off on the side of the road the trooper handed the ticket over to the driver (i believe it was a trailer plates violation) and another vehicle on the highway passed by obviously without even reducing speed. Mind you he came no-where close to hitting us or the trooper. The trooper turned and looked at the vehicle barreling away, then said "well I guess I'll go get him" and ran to his car... lol |

Hold off on the lawyer just yet:
This is the route I've usually taken on tickets.
1. Show up to court and plea not guilty and request trial by jury...they will then reset the court date to 3-6 months down the road.
2. Show up to court again, and sometimes they ask if you wish to change your plea..dont. Or it could be the actual trial date.
Now... if its the actual trial date, you dont necessarily need the lawyer then. There is a big chance that the cop will not show, even though the court will make you believe that they always will.
If the cop shows up, you can reset the court date to hire an attorney, and thats when you call David Sprecher.
One of two outcomes:
a. the cop doesnt show and you get your ticket dismissed free of charge (if you hold off on getting a lawyer)
b. The cop shows...but doesn't want to go up against Sprecher (lol)..
Either way, my cases have never gone to trial. Hope this helps. |

Eh? Not getting it dude...
Why would I wanna go to trial though? For one, that's going to cost more than 300 balls, and 300 balls is approx. the total amount for the fines. On the other hand, if I lose $100 then fine, no problem, but I do not want to go to a trial. The last time I was at a trial, I was facing a little than just fines. :D
School and time are of the essence as well. I cannot miss class this semester whatsoever. I'm already ting bricks as it is missing out on the day of the court....whenever that is. |

What I am trying to say, is if you contest the ticket, and it gets dismissed, you don't pay anything.
With your classes n whatnot I'd go ahead and hire the attorney since you dont have the time to sit in court. I recommended him because unlike the other people in the courtroom that seemed to be getting screwed over by theirs, Sprecher had the case dismissed when the opposition found out who was representing me, lol. |
