Re: sign tickets
Did the poles belong to you? If so, you have a solid chance to defend yourself. Otherwise, posting business signs on someone else's property without permission is a misdemeanor, and I suppose you might be subject to jail time as well as a fine. The specific provision of law is Penal Code section 556.1, or if public property were involved, section 556.
Section 556.2 creates a minor exception for certain notices and 556.3 declares the posed signs to be a public nuisance.
