I fought the law & I won!
So today was the day of my hearing for my speeding ticket. I prepared and prepared for hours. I was nervous as hell but when my name was called. I stood up and said that I had case law that I wanted to submit. The judge asked me if I wanted to make statements about my case and I said no, I would invoke my right against self-incrimination. Soon as I started mentioning the case law again, she suggested I just motion to dismiss because the cop was a no show. So I did and she granted it. The guy before me was in shock because he made some stupid comments on how the ticket was bad because he did stop but not a 3 second stop, etc, etc, blah. The judge accepted the ticket into evidence on face value and he lost while I WON!
Moral of the story… don’t open your mouth. It does more harm then good.
