Legal Question in Employment Law in New York

Can I fight a misprint on a summons

My question is if I can fight a summons if they spelled my name wrong. It isn't a traffic summons, it's a fire safety permit summons. Please advise as soon as possible.

Thank you very much

Re: Can I fight a misprint on a summons

It's something that can be brought up as part of a defense, but I wouldn't count on it being your main defense. If nothing else on the summons is defective, a typo is not a freedom ticket.

Should you like to discuss this or any other legal matter, you can e-mail me for more information about low cost face-to-face, on-line, or a telephone consultation with a lawyer in our office.
