Legal Question in Traffic Law in Texas
Texas officer missing radar training certificate etc,
I am set for trial in near future to dispute a speeding violation. Prior to the trial I asked the court to subpoena a list of documents from the police department: officer's
a.radar unit calibration and maintenance,
b.radar training certificate,
c.tuning forks and their calibration,
d.the radar used,
e.FCC license of agency,
f.history of makes, models, and serial numbers of radar units,
g.video footage.
Of these requested the following were not provided:
officer's
a.radar unit calibration and maintenance
b.radar training certificate,
c.tuning forks and their calibration,
d.the radar used,
Do I have a case? Will the judge consider these as a cause for dismissal?
I know states differ in how such violations are handled. I am looking for info that applies to North Richland Hills, Texas

Re: Texas officer missing radar training certificate etc,
You will need to know how to dispute the production, prior to trial. If the officer brings the items to trial, you will need to know how to dispute it at trial. You will also need to know how to convince the court that the items are relevant, and material; and the consequences of the failure to comply with the subpoena.
