Q: How do i fight a ticket for driving while suspended when I was provided with false information by the bmv. I have proof
I paid the $500 reinstatement fee to the bmv paid online on 9/12 at which time my drivers record online ALSO stated SR22 NOT NEEDED. And it may take UP TO 14 days to process. I was then pulled over and given a driving while suspended on 10/6. At which time I contacted the bmv by phone who informed me that the sr22 WAS needed to stay the suspension and the $500 WAS NOT needed, but also would NOT be refunded. I purchased the sr22 on 10/10 and received the letter of reinstatement on 10/12. My court date for the ticket is 11/4 and I cannot afford a lawyer.will the judge even give me thetime to explain or provide my proof without a lawyer? I don't know court procedures or what I have to file with who beforehand I just want to be heard and treated fairly.... The bmv information provided me with false information on my official driving record and swindled me out of 500 bucks. Do I really have to pay this ticket too??
