Q: Hey so I got a ticket back in march of 2017 for doing 87 in 55 and got a ticket for 32 over. I was able to get deffer it

Sadly in July I got another I let for doing 5 over... I'm not really sure if I have any other options to do other than try to explain my situation I am a college student who had greatly learned from my first ticket and had some bad luck. Let me know if there is anything I can do.

A: What court are they filed in? Different courts have different policies, it may be possible to salvage the deferred depending on the courts involved. It would probably require you hire a lawyer and let them negotiate with the prosecuting attorney.

In the alternative, if you can beat the new ticket outright then the first court won't revoke the deferred.
