Legal Question in Criminal Law in Illinois
Driver of a car received a ticket for no seat belt worn by passenger (eventhough passenger and driver says they both had them on). My question is when you contest this ticket and the witness is in jail can that witness we summoned to appear. If not how can i get a statement from the individual or should I wait until they get out of jail?

Usually you will have to get the court to issue an order to have the witnesses writted in. It is an order to have the jail bring the witness to court on a certain date.
