updated info* Ive been summons to court to appear March 5th, 2015...in 3 days! My knowledge of how the court system work is very basic. I am considering pleading not guilty if I have to go to trial. My father is the holder of the accessible parking permit. I had it in my possession. We were attending the same wedding. He was to come separately. I was to drive him home at the end of the night. My pops said it was ok for me to use the tag I was responsible to for his transportation at the end of the night. I did display it in on the dash... moments later a ticketing officer stopped me before I got to far from the car. He asked to look at the pernit, i let him. explained it was my fathers and the situation. He didn't like my answers and took it form me. Now im here. I have some questions... Was I/my father in the wrong about its use? Couldn't find the resources to disprove the officer. -How to I go about getting disclosure or is it to early? Does it happen after a trail date is established? -Is it even possible to get disclosure this close to the order to appear date? -Does the officer have to be in court on the day of the summons? -Is there any way of striking a deal prior to a trail? -What steps could you recommend? Sorry for the late requests...I just found this forum! Great resource!!! Thank you in advance. All your help is greatly appreciated.
