Q: I recieved an unregistered summons New York City
I received an unregistered summons in New York City from a New York State cop...This was actually written on a car I was loaned from a dealer.. A plate reader picked it up Cop told me the dealer's registration was expired upon review it was expired. I plead not guilty and that was a year ago around this time beginning of May they gave me hearing date a year later... I just got a letter postponing that hearing date another year this is over two years from the time of incident...To be honest with you I don't even remember the circumstances that led up to it where's the due process how do I defend myself if I don't remember traffic patterns change construction changes can't get the same pictures can I make that argument and the New Jersey used car dealer is no longer in buss... It's a little ridiculous that you got to try to remember two years... Do I have a good argument let me know...
A: Was that the only ticket that you received? If so, get a letter from the dealer that it was their vehicle and proof that the car was re-registered. You can have an attorney to represent you and you would not even have to appear.
