Re: Is this considered a felony?

Assuming that you have accurately give the statute numbers, you are charged with a failure to produce required document or documents and with making an illegal u-turn. What seems to me to be a red flag is that the complaint number is

the kind of number given to criminal matters and

which is not given to motor vehicle offenders. You must be leaving something out.

Call me if you like. You could fax the complaint

to me so that I can advise you better.

In this case, no, it should be a disorerly persons offense. However, it is still serious and I recommend getting an attorney to fight it unless a criminal record doesn't bother you. My initial consultations are always free. Thus, feel free to call me at 732/247/3340 to discuss the case.

Good luck!

Re: Is this considered a felony?

The two last ones, 39:4-125 and 39:3-29 are traffic tickets and you are looking at points on your license and the payment of fines. THe first one, Hindering by giving someone else's information is most likely NOT a felony (or rather a Criminal charge as they are called in New Jersey), but is most likely a disorderly persons offense. Disorderly person's offenses are still violations of the criminal code and you will have a record if you are convicted of this, but they are smaller criminal charges. I would have to see the actual complaint before I could give you a definite answer about this, but in general you are looking at heavy fines and potentially even some jail time. I would recommend that at the very least you consult with a lawyer before you go to court on this. I am an attorney who has handled many cases similar to yors in various courts in New Jersey in the past. I would like to discuss your case with you in more detail. Please contact me about this. I never charge for simply talking to a person about their case. Thank you.

Sincerely yours, -Ronald Aronds, Esq.-
