Legal Question in Traffic Law in Illinois
I was pulled over for speeding in June '11 in a very small county in Indiana. I live in Illinois and wasn't aware of the court date. I missed it, then recieved a notification that my license would be suspended on Oct. 22nd if I didn't pay the fees. So I paid them Oct. 5th. The judge told me that everything was taken care of and that my license would not be suspended. Well, as I was driving home today, I had a broken tail light. I was pulled over and then arrested for driving while license was suspended. Even though I was told I was okay to drive by the Judge a month ago. Now my car is impounded and I don't have the money to pay for it to get out because I'm still paying $500 for the ticket and I will not be able to drive until Dec. 20th until I can get the Illinois judge to drop these tickets. Is there a way I would be able to have the Indiana Walkerton County Courts to pay for the impound and or any other fees this may cost me?
