A:
To determine if your son's ticket can be dismissed due to errors on the dates, you should first review the ticket and any related documents carefully. In Pennsylvania, procedural errors such as incorrect dates might provide grounds for dismissal, but it depends on the specifics of the case and how the court views these errors.
You can argue that the incorrect dates create confusion and possibly violate procedural requirements. The date you were notified (3/26/24) and the date filed (11/26/24) being so far apart might be significant, but it will ultimately depend on the rules and regulations governing the issuance and processing of such tickets in your jurisdiction.
It's advisable to consult with a local attorney who can review the ticket and the relevant laws. They can help you understand if the date discrepancies are sufficient grounds for dismissal and guide you through the process of challenging the ticket in court. This professional advice will be crucial in effectively addressing your son's situation.
