Re: Possession of blue lights for a vehicle.

More facts are needed. Has the "subject" been charged with a specific offense? If so, his attorney would need to analyze the charges and the specific facts of the case.

Example: if the "subject" has been charged with impersonating a firefighter (i.e. due to having a flashing blue emergency light in his vehicle), then the issue is not merely one of simple possession of the emergency light.

I strongly recommend that you consult with an attorney immediately so that you can explore your legal rights, obligations, and options. If you wish to discuss retaining my services, contact me at:
