Q: The log in to pay ticket fine on website listed on ticket, no information of my son nor the ticket number is showing up
Officer lowered ticket to 10 mph or less. Ticket states court date time and address however Area of ticket for officer to mark “appear in court? Y or N?” Officer left blank. And we cannot find any information on the back of the ticket as to whether or not this is a mandatory court date.
Son can’t leave base without month advance request (due to current COVID restrictions) so he could not show up to court anyways, But would be able to reschedule court date if court allows that, if he needed to, But then there’s also the problem of limited staff due to core Covid restrictions so he has not been able to contact, but website doesn’t have any info on him. Worried he will get a warrant for FTA...
Searching for ideas or suggestions on what to do to have this matter resolved,especially with him being in the military, if he gets a warrant that would end his entire career. All for something silly is a speeding ticket! Thank you in advance for any help you are able to provide
A: If he is only charged with speeding he can just pay the ticket and not show up for court. At that time the "bond" (what he paid) with be forfeited and the case will be over. That being said, depending on what state he has his license in the points for the ticket can transfer back and show up on his license there. If he wishes to fight the ticket of hire an attorney to assist him it is best to contact someone as soon as possible so that they can start negotiating with the officer.
