If the cops have concrete evidence of your violation, it's best to plead guilty in a sincere manner. Avoid transferring responsibility. As long as you show understanding of your violation and remorse for committing it, then you can generally plead guilty and get out of it by taking a driving course.
Added: Before you plead anything to a traffic offense, you should check with your state's DMV for their point system. You will want to know how this offense will look on your record. Pleading guilty does not "get you out of it." Pleading guilty is accepting all consequences. Some courts will offer a reduction in exchange for driving school or other considerations, which may help keep your record clear. You should go to court or talk to a lawyer to find out if this is available, even if you are actually guilty.
It is recommended to follow traffic laws and signs to ensure your safety and the safety of others. If you have violated a "no turn on red" sign, it is best to take responsibility for your actions and follow the appropriate legal procedures, which may include pleading guilty if that is the case.
A breach is like breaking through a locked door, while a violation is like disregarding a no trespassing sign. Both involve crossing boundaries or rules, but a breach usually implies a more significant or severe intrusion compared to a violation.
Yes, an executor can sign a will as a witness, but they should not sign as a beneficiary to avoid any potential conflicts of interest. It is important to follow applicable laws and ensure the will is properly witnessed.
Barangay tanods should not force anyone to sign a barangay summon. The decision to sign the summon should be voluntary, and individuals have the right to seek legal advice before signing any document. Any form of coercion or intimidation is not allowed.
In North Carolina, a person must be at least 18 years old to sign a legal contract, with some exceptions for emancipated minors or contracts for necessaries. A minor who signs a contract before turning 18 may have the option to disaffirm or void the contract upon reaching the age of majority.
Yes, it is recommended for both the witness and the testator to sign on the same page of a will to ensure its validity and authenticity. This practice helps to demonstrate that both parties were present and acknowledged the contents of the will when it was signed.
Under Mississippi Code of 1972, ann., your dilatory plea would be place on hold and once you successfully complete Pre-Trial Diversion, the Hearing Judge will sign an order dismissing the charge(s). Once that is complete, you can hire an attorney and have your record expunged.I hope that helps.
When turning you should signal during the last 100 feet before a stop sign. This is courteous to all drivers around you.
If there is a road-sign which shows the turning coming up, indicate just before the sign (that way drivers behind you can clearly follow what you intend to do). If there is not a road-sign, indicate just before you have to begin to slow down for the turning, leaving yourself plenty of time to break gradually.
That is entirely up to the judge. The court is not party to a plea agreement and the prosecutor cannot guarantee what kind of treatment you will receive in court. Personally I have seen judges throw out plea agreements and try the defendant on his original charge.
No.
Blackout from turning your head is unlikely; however, sudden changes in head position can cause brief dizziness known as vertigo. If you experience frequent blackouts or dizziness upon head movement, it's important to consult with a healthcare provider to rule out underlying medical conditions.
Juror 1, the foreman never seemed to get involved in the arguments. He is a representation of complete impartiality. When Juror 1 votes not guilty, it is a turning point, a sign that the evidence points to a not-guilty verdict.
Yes, absolutely. The only exception is if the driver turning right has a yield sign. This is one of the most common mistakes I see in the area I live. Many times, the driver turning right has a yield sign. That would give priority to the driver turning left. However, if the driver turning right has no yield sign, she has the priority. There are so many yield signs in my area that drivers turning left automatically assume they have the right-of-way even if no yield sign is present for the driver turning right.
It very well could be. Are there no other indications of the officers identification on the ticket at all? Badge number? Patrol unit number? Some courts allow officers to 'amend' the ticket in court, some don't. My best suggestion is to show up on the date on the ticket and plead "not guilty" and explain the reason to the judge. I have seen drivers get off in the past due to this omission.
Contrary to popular belief, there is no such thing as a plea bargain "contract." The offer of a plea bargain is made between the prosecutor and the defense attorney. The judge is not involved in this 'bargaining process' and in some cases may not agree with it, and is not required to follow the result suggested by the prosecutor.
