I read that as long as it's used for farm work, isn't loaded over 8,000 pounds and isn't wider than 8 1/2 feet it could qualify as an Implement of husbandry. Is this correct, seeing how the Suburban isn't 8 1/2 feet wide and wasn't pulling a trailer or was it loaded with... View More

Let's see you want to get out of something and think a judge or cop will be really sympathetic with a stretch like this.

I requested discovery for the officer's notes and they asked for 'reverse-discovery' from me. I hope that clears up the ambiguity.

Your question is a bit ambiguous. It isn't so much a matter of discovery as it is that your declaration would be considered your testimony, and it isn't going to be hidden from the opposing party. If you are asking if you should send a copy of your declaration to the opposing side (law... View More

The number you have listed 17CR54394 looks to be a criminal case, which is a number the court assigned. The numbers on the citation are often internal numbers, think of a checkbook and your check number, a way to track things. If you want further clarification you should contact the Clerks office...

For traffic violations, paying a fine and entering a plea by mail is beneficial in that it allows a person to avoid appearing and waiting in court, only to pay the same amount of money that they would if they went to court.

Assuming we are talking about Uber or Lyft or the like, the question is still whether or not you are an employee or independent contractor. If the later, then the contractor would be. If the former, if the ticket goes to you as an employee, then the employee likely needs to since illegal acts are... View More

No hearing is held that day. Call the court or go the next day to find out when the hearing is supposed to be.

This the guy who took your keys? Thought I answered that. In any event, he should ask his lawyer. I would advise you get the letter, he put you in the jam, if his sorry self is back inside you can look for someone who won't leave you high and dry.
I know, deep down inside he's a... View More
I received a citation for speeding. The officer put on the citation that I was driving a 1984 Volvo 240, when I was driving a 1996 Honda Accord. Also the last digit of my license plate is wrong on the citation. Also the officer said I was going 85 MPH in a 65 MPH zone which is 11-20 MPH over the... View More

It would still be worth fighting, mostly over the amount over, but don't hold your breath that the judge will dismiss just on the other errors.
I was hit by a person merging into my lane earlier, they told me I was at fault, that I hit them because they were in front of me and I rammed them. The scuffs are on the back of my car and there is a dent on their front left side of their car. I was uninsured (paid my insurance right after,... View More

Without looking, I believe there is a provision that allows you to escape any serious issues if you purchase insurance right away.
It wasn't a speeding ticket or anything. The license plate cover was blocking my tags on my car.

Doesn't matter if the ticket was for speeding or anything else, you were not supposed to be driving. If you did not go to court, they will likely issue a bench warrant, and it will not look good to your PO.
I am fighting a speeding ticket I got from Oregon State Police. The trooper told me it will cost me more to ask for discovery's then just pay the ticket. I know I can win if I have everything I need from the Officer. Do I have to pay for discovery's I request? If not what is the law saying I do not?

Generally, in traffic cases you have to track down the discovery you want. With OSP, you should send a letter to their records department with a $25.00 check. That's usually their minimum fee. They will notify you if there are further fees that need to be paid. Unfortunately, OSP is extremely... View More
