You need to contact a Virginia licensed Lawyer and see exactly what can be done in your particular case. Most Attorneys offer a free in office consultation, I suggest you set one up ASAP as this can be a very serious offense.

Your son got very lucky they did not impound the car. Yes I suggest he hires a lawyer or at least talks to one as he is looking at a $500.00 fine and what you describe could have additional criminal charges if not handled correctly.

You can plead not guilty and take statute from online to court and show prosecutor and ask him to agree that the officer made a mistake so that he may dismiss the case.

More information is needed to properly answer
your question. You should speak to a lawyer in an in person consultation, but expect to pay for any immigration advice as that is beyond the Free consultation most attorneys offer.

I would not complain about the parking ticket because the year old marijuana was still good enough to give you a criminal charge.

According to the law itself your chances of winning are good. The reality of the situation is most judges will find you guilty. It is a mandatory court appearance so you will need to come to court otherwise a warrant could issue for your arrest. A lawyer may be able to appear on your behalf but... View More

Can you get a ticket certainly. Can the town win it, is always up to the judge, remember you generally have an easement to the town in the front few feet of your lot.

The sign said no parking Friday 6pm to Sunday 6pm. I honestly never saw it, but saw the ticket on my windshield when I left. My car and the entire street worth of cars had these tickets. You could tell the township hung these on the utility poles, only in the summer, to decrease the parking... View More

Yes you may have a point if it is that high to be able to win but most judges will still find that the sign was reasonably placed

As many as you want until you hit 12 points then your license gets suspended. That being said some tickets come with jail and loss of license just from the ticket itself.
answered on May 29, 2018
This will generally be considered a clerical error and the officer will identify you as the person he gave the ticket to in court so the judge will ignore it and convict you. I suggest you just pay it because if you want to go to trial on it you may have to go for more than a few court appearances.
