Me: 1, DA: 0
Remember this post?
The ticket part is finally... finally over. It's been four months since I was given a ridiculous traffic ticket and my attorney was finally able to get it tossed. It took him no less than four trips to court to get it canned, but he did it and I can finally move on (not that I've hardly even remembered I got the ticket, because I barely do). What's amazing to me is it took four months! My attorney had warned me it could take several months and several trips to court to work, but still... four months?
The cop conceded I could have seen the 55 MPH sign from where he clocked me and that I was polite when he gave me the ticket. Truth be told, I didn't even talk... I mean, really! He didn't ask me to speak, therefore I didn't speak. So why did it take so long? My attorney was waiting for the right judge/DA combo... apparently some combos are more willing to toss tickets than others. My attorney even commented someone said with the current DA it's easier to get felonies tossed than traffic fines. That's promising. Anyway, the ordeal is over and I can be rest assured I have no points on my record, which is a big deal hear in NC... something I don't understand but probably should.
Hooray! Ticket free... and no more mailings from over zealous attorneys looking to protect me. Now if only I could get the collection calls for someone I've never heard of to stop... if only!
