A: If you received a reckless driving and DWI ticket in Mississippi, and the court cannot locate your information, take the following steps: contact the court clerk's office to inquire about your case, verify the accuracy of your ticket details, and consider seeking legal advice, especially if issues persist. Make sure to appear willing to address the matter responsibly, keep records of any communication with the court, and be prepared to appear when needed.
A: That likely means that the officer did not turn in the relevant paperwork. Your best bet is going to be to get with an experienced criminal defense lawyer to discuss further, as there is a possibility that the case could be dismissed.
