Q: Does a NJ municipality have to recycle? If so is there a penalty if the municipality does not recycle?
H. Scott Aalsberg Esq.'s answer
Attorneys here are not allowed to give you a specific legal advice only answer general questions. This question is best answered by your township attorney that is what he is paid for and that is his job. What I will say is that, it was never a green thing to recycle as it generally cost more money and energy to recycle than the benefits gained. at least for everything except maybe paper. That's the reason China has stopped accepting American recycled products because it is creating too much...

I doubt anyone here would remember or even have the outdated books to tell you. I would think your best bet would be to call MVC if you had a surcharge from back in the day

H. Scott Aalsberg Esq.'s answer
More information would be needed, but generally its up to 2 years, but it can be shorter even up to only 90 days depending on who you hit. Speak to a lawyer so you know exactly how long you have, because if you wait too long you may lose the right to recovery any monetary damages.

Q: How can A failing to not see a faded painted median constitute careless driving??? No one was hurt
H. Scott Aalsberg Esq.'s answer
Unfortunately it may, it all depends on what the officer has to say about it. Take pictures with you to court, however the law states that you must always stay to the right so being in the center of a road is not allowed. If you want to have the best chance of winning I suggest hiring a good lawyer. Most traffic ticket lawyers offer a free in office consultation, I would suggest that you set one up.

Q: I recently got the TPO dismissed. Does that mean I could get the summons dismissed too? I never committed a crime before
H. Scott Aalsberg Esq.'s answer
A TRO has a much lower standard than a criminal charge. That being said many reason exist why a TRO could be dismissed where as those reasons have nothing to do and won't effect a criminal charge. Thus I suggest hiring a lawyer because if it doesn't get dismissed you may be looking at jail, probation, fines and a criminal record.
