I have no idea if it was buried in the archives but you will still be required under law to disclose them. The conviction is also of issue and I think the crime might be one of "moral turpitude" so this rather small issue might be something to require further review. Given the competition for...

Getting convicted would be bad... very bad. Given the very small amount of money hopefully something can be worked out although this may still constitute a conviction for INS purposes. The other issue is that I believe this may also be a crime of "moral turpitude" or one that is reflective of...

Do you already have a child? You will probably be speaking to the American Consulate again and they can give you answers to your questions. There is some information on this process here: http://www.thelaw.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4291

Everyone is looking for the way to do it but the borders have tightened up significantly, especially after 9/11. Without sponsorship it is a difficult task. Who is "they?"

Being nasty isn't a crime although it can be an impediment to making money and running a successful business. If you feel that the nastiness rose to a level of danger to you, for example "assault" then that is another story. What happened exactly?

That's one I cannot answer but can tell you that parking tickets have no statute of limitations that I am aware of. I also don't know what state you are from and exactly what the MTA may be.

No, it would not be entrapment or "unlawful imprisionment" where someone is held against their will. I'm guessing that what happened will not aid you in your case to get back your car. Entrapment is when someone is induced and provoked to commit a crime by law enforcement for the purposes of...

Does it have your driver's license information? I'd certainly make the argument but I'm not sure whether your vehicle information is required.

#1 -- Look at the law specifically that deals with the summons. Remember that it is the prosecutor's job to prove each element. This should always be the first step in analyzing whether you may have violated any law or ordinance. You can claim that you didn't make the u-turn but let me ask...

It is the driver's responsibility not the passenger's to ensure that all passengers in your vehicle are wearing a seatbelt. I do not believe your explanation would be effective. This is the reason why you and not the passenger received a summons. You would do best by looking at the exact wording...

I believe that you enter such a plea when you are in court.

If you show up for a hearing, you may be able to avoid the ticket. First, you should go to court and speak to the prosecutor. He may decide to drop the matter entirely. You can state that you have no offences on your license in your driving history -- you are a careful driver -- and that this...

This is difficult. You got a freebie if you are talking about a Prayer for Judgment. 2 years ago is not a long time. I'm not sure if your license will be revoked if the speeding ticket can be reduced to a certain amount such as by making a deal with the prosecutor. The PJC is supposed to be a...

I'm not sure there is a way and your attorney can handle this better than we can, espcially since we don't know the state. Are you sure that you would be required to have SR22 insurance in this instance?

If it's not relevant and you meet the requirements of statute, it doesn't matter what the officer says he thinks you should have done. How was your plate mounted exactly? If it was swinging and not mounted in a position that is "clearly visible" then you may have a challenge in court to overcome...

I would say that you have a much better chance to reduce the severity of the ticket by appearing in person and discussing this with the prosecutor. In many instances bringing an attorney may help you get a better result. If you have a friend who may do this for you, it might be of assistance...

You should probably plead not guilty if it comes to the court. You may be able to make a deal with the prosecutor, which is something that freqently happens. However, you should be prepared to ask a number of questions and provide proofs as well. Taking pictures is good if you feel that it is...

I do not believe there is a statute of limtiations on parking tickets. I heard that San Francisco has had some record numbers concerning the years for collection of parking tickets.

This is an obvious mistake. I'm not sure that this will do anything to get your friend out of the ticket because he was confused about the mistake. It might prolong the pain and could make things even more difficult showing up in court if you are wrong. I'd make a call and ask questions. This...

This is a challenge. I'm really not sure how to answer this. You may best hire an attorney to take care of this and negotiate on your behalf. I will tell you this little bit of information -- in many instances prosecutors have been willing to make better deals with people represented by an...
