Legal Question in Traffic Law in New Jersey

Re: Backstabbing Officer

Sounds like a raw deal, but unfortunately the best you will be able to do is hopefully get a "no-pointer." There is a chance, however, you may have an argument that the police officer waited too long to write the speeding ticket. The statute of limitations is the time within which legal actions must be started.

Beyond any arguments based on the Statute, if he could rightfully ticket you for speeding, there is probably not anything improper about him later mailing the ticket.

If you are in Mercer County or South, give me a call if you want to talk about this further or discuss the range of possible outcomes. I will need to do a bit further research before giving you any definite answers, but I offer free consultations to at least discuss the case generally and help you determine if you need further research/legal representation.

Thanks,

Re: Backstabbing Officer

You really have no defense as to the receipt of the ticket. The officer has the right to issue a ticket, even if he said that he is only giving you a warning.

What you can do is have an attorney plea your ticket to a no pointer. Where you would have no points on your drivers license.

If you have further questions, or would like to hire an attorney, I can be reached at 201-646-9600.
