well, i have to reply to the court before August 1st as to whether or not i am paying the fine.
did i mention NY sucks!!!!
You're still going to file the appeal, right? At least it is sent in and received by the time the clerk gets back. She can then take it from there. Hopefully she will help you get it reduced to something a lot more reasonable!
Turn on the Elky charm. Maybe if she's lucky you'll drive out there and take her out for some tea...teabagging that is.

the $200 a year was an estimate, it might be more.
i appealed the ticket already, and i recieved their reduced offer.
now i want to appeal that, but once i appeal that, i get a court date and thats it.
i cant get to court there.
but i might have to apeal it and take the court date and then try to call and work something out then.

ok, well i got another letter from the DAs office.
it is an amendment to the first offer.
they reduced it now down to parking or stanfing on pavement, no points, must take a defensive driving course.
so i have to look into this course, the lady said AA usually offers them for free.
and the fine will be a $55 surcharge(i guess every NY ticket gets this) and whatever the judge decides to fine me.
it should be under $200 total.
this is a non moving violation so it wont effect my Mass driving record.
WOOT!
tony...call the DAs office and talk to Linda 315-366-2236.
tell her you would like to see if they could ammend the first reduction they gave you.
i didnt even ask, and they did it.
