Legal Question in Traffic Law in New York
Someone using my name got tickets
What can be done about a situation where someone used my name and received 3 traffic tickets? I wouldn't have know about the tickets except for the fact that I received a dismissal notice for no license. Why I called to see what that was about they informed me there was 2 others. I took my niece to school that day (I did everyday) but I have no proof of my whereabouts. Any advice for me? Thank you for your help.

Get a lawyer. YOu have to over turn those tickets and you will probably have to report this fraud to the police and the court. Even though you didn't do anything wrong, it is difficult to undergo that kind of scrutiny alone. If you cannot afford a lawyer, call the local Bar Association or better stil your state Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers.

Good Luck.

I would lodge a complaint with the Enforcement Unit of DMV. They will investigate it. In the interim, you should run your record to make sure that there are no other tickets which have been given out on your license number. Call us if you need help running your record or have any further questions.
Re: Someone using my name got tickets
You must answer those remaining tickets,failure to do so may result in either a warrant or suspension of your driver's license. At trial the officer must offer some testimony as to how you were identified at the time of the incident. A good attorney can get these charges dismissed through good and thorough cross-examination. As stated by another attorney this should be reported to the DMV and investigated to determine if there are other outstanding violations against your record committed by another individual.Where did this all take place?Please call my office @7188340087 for a free phone consultation.I can help solve your problems.
