Can you fight it. Of course you can. You can fight anything you want. Can you win. That's another question. I'm not going to try to guess that one. It depends on many factors including what side of the bed the judge got up that morning.

I'll only add to what Zadik says above by saying you're not going to win on the issue of where the ticket occurred. The Notice of Correction is an "amended complaint" and corrects the location reference in the ticket itself. However, there are other ways to fight this ticket. If you'd like to talk to me about this, don't hesitate to call me. Good luck. Steve Mandell 310 393 0639
