Hey guys, I need some help.
About two months ago I got a speeding ticket for 36 in a 30 and a failure to stop for rolling through a stop sign, all at the same time. The area I got the ticket is under the jurisdiction of Precinct 4 of Harris County, Texas. Also known as Humble/Atascacita. So I got the tickets, I waited a week for processing like the ticket says to do and tried to pay for them, only they weren't in the system yet, I tried again the next week, and the next week until I forgot to check every week. Last week I checked because I knew my court date was coming up. Still, nothing. Now today, less than three days before the court date on my ticket I log on to the Justices of the Peace website again, and there my cases appear, and I got really ticked. I thought the officer must have lost my ticket or something, nope he's just amazingly slow. http://web.jp.hctx.net/CaseInfo/GetCaseInf...se=TR42X2197342 If you scroll down you will see the ticket wasn't added until last Tuesday, the 22nd, less than a week before my day in court on the 28th. It should have been added over SIX weeks ago. I was just going to pay for my citations and comply, but now I want to fight. And I was wondering if his lacking ability to process my ticket can be used to my advantage to have these tickets dismissed. Can I use this as ammo? Anyone have ANY experience in this situation? Or one like it? Or just experience fighting tickets at all? Please help |

Really? The cop being slow is completely useless to me? The ticket says right on it "Please allow 7 days for processing before attempting to resolve this citation with the court." I had to wait almost 2 months before I'd even be able to do anything!
Also, I'm 18 almost 19, and technically, I have a clean driving record on paper because I've had one ticket from a wreck that was taken care of with Defensive Driving, and two speeding tickets, one taken care of with Defensive Driving and the other with deferred disposition. There are no points or anything on my license/driving record. QUOTE (DEATH @ Jul 25, 2008 - 2:23 PM) Jester? As in Poopra Jester? Randy is that you? uhh, no, sorry |

Looks like you're gonna have to pay up. --------------------  |
