Here's the situation. A few years ago he got a ticket for speeding in Kentucky. They want him to go to driving school or his license is susspended in KY. (We did pay the ticket).\nWell we live in Michigan. They checked him on the national drivers registery and it showed up. Michigan won't give his license back unless he settles with KY and KY won't give him his license unless he drives there and takes their stupid driving class or whatever.\nWe don't have the gas money do drive there and he can' afford to take off of work. Is there anything we can do?\nHe talked to a secretary of state in MI and they don't offer any such driving classes the KY wants him to take.

Check to see if there are any attorney's in your area that would talk with you about this or you might check with the court that the ticket went through, or The Department of Public Saftey DL division & ask if maybe he needs to go to driving school or what he needs to do to handle this.....hope this might help....let me know if you have any questions....-R

Im sorry I dont have any help for you. However, I am 26 years old and three years ago I was in a vehicle when similar circumstances occurred. Also resulted in a felony conviction. I have a bachelors degree in economics and have just applied to law schools. I know its very discouraging. I dont expect to get into any schools, but I am trying everything under the sun. If I do get into law school, I am going to make it a huge priority to help people trying to get into the workforce to be successful.

find some real legal advice. if you can't afford it, legal aid in your county/city should be able to help. good luck.\n\nif that doesn't work, add some sugar to his gas tank.

My brother just got in trouble for going 78 in a 40 in June. He had no previous tickets or anything got a $150 dollar fine. They could make you go to traffic school. It really depends on if your judge is in a good mood, and how many previous offenses you have

Type lawyerdude into your search engine. he has many pages on how to deal with this type of problem. DO NOT let her go in there and plead guilty, even if she is. She doesn't need the extra expense of traffic school and the likely increase in insurance. It may be a little bit inconvenient to fight it, but definitely cheaper in the long run. Empower yourself and fight for whats right, she didn't hurt anyone and she didn't damage anybodys property, so according to the Constitution, she really didn't commit any crime, even though your state has some statute, that they're saying she violated. As for the points, shes going to get the same amount if she pleads guilty or is found guilty by trial. They cannot give you  a worse punishment because she decide to take the case to trial.

I AM from Ohio and have never heard of such a thing. I know if you live out of state, sometimes they will keep your license until you pay the ticket, and then mail it back but if I were you...I'd call the number on your citation to find out exactly what you're supposed to pay. The tickets I've gotten in Ohio generally have the fine listed on the back.

Unfortunately, he's probably not going to let him go at this time.  He's had a violation for one thing and even if he did decide on a whim to let him go, there is lots of paperwork involved in letting him go out of the country or state.  It costs money as well.  \n\nThe reason i know this is because i have been on probation before.  In order to be released on a travel permit you must be up to date on all your fines as well as have clean ua's and no violations.  Probation is just that.... a chance to prove that you can start over and not commit anymore crimes.  \n\nHe has to realize that means no speeding, no nothing... this is his one chance to prove himself.  \n\nJust because someone is on probation does not mean they are a bad person... they made a mistake.  \n\nMaybe this year you two can have a dinner together.  Just tell him to make sure he keeps on the straight and narrow path.  This is his chance at a life...

Here in Tennessee you still have to go to the local DMV. Just make sure you get there first thing in the morning & he has all of his paperwork ready

IF EXPLAINED IN COURT, I'M ALMOST 99%SURE YOU'D GET IT ALL, WAS THE CAR YOU WERE DRIVING A POSSESSION OF YOUR MARRIAGE OR WAS IT A CAR YOU HAD BEFORE THE MARRIAGE?.....DID HE AT ANYTIME, "LIVE IN YOUR BODY AND SUFFER YOUR PAIN?.....I THINK NOT........YOUR EX IS TRYING TO INTIMIDATE YOU, I'D FILE A RESTRAINIGN ORDER ON HIM WITH ONLY SUPERVISED VISITATION WITH YOUR CHILD WITH A WITNESS PRESENT AND ALWAYS EITHER RECORD YOUR CONVERSATION OR VIDEOTAPE IT. THIS WILL KEEP HIM AT HIS BEST MANNERS AND HE'LL KNOW YOU ARE DOING THINGS BY THE BOOK. MAKE SURE YOUR ATTY. TELLS THE JUDGE HE IS INTIMIDATING YOU AND THAT YOU ARE AFRAID OF HIM, IT IS OBVIOUS THAT HE IS MONEY MOTIVATED (bad for him in court)AND JUDGES LOOK DOWN ON PEOPLE WHO INTIMIDATE WOMEN. IN ALL STATES

Can't speak for Ohio, but in Michigan going 26 miles an hour over the speed limit is either careless driving or reckless driving.  They both carry heavy fines and a lot of points on your license.  It's VERY rare in Michigan that someone goes to jail for careless or reckless driving unless there was an accident involved and someone got hurt.  \n\nWARNING:  I promise you that you WILL go to jail if you miss your court date, so don't miss it.  Your best bet is to show up for court, admit responsibility, and explain why you were going so fast.  If you didn't have good reason for speeding, be sure to tell the judge that you realize you shouldn't have been going that fast.  People who own up to their mistakes and take responsibility for them are more likely to get leniency from a judge.  It's the people who show no remorse or go in with an attitude that always end up getting punished to the fullest extent of the law.

Your best bet... do your BF a favour, let him learn the lesson.  Get the heck out of this relationship.  Listen to your family, this is not someone you want to spend the rest of your life with.  Once a criminal, always a criminal to this extent.  This is not something minor.  This is major major stuff. RUN!!!! And don't look back.\n\n------------------------------------\n\n> But anyways, he is in for 6 traffic tickets\n\nDepending on the degree of those tickets, that's license suspension, and a whole myriad of other issues right there...\n\n> probation violation(on the run for 3 1/2 years)... \n> he told me something about 10 years deferred  probation, and\n> that for now he can't get out on a bond.\n\nDeferred generally states, that your BF when he was granted this probation was told by the judge that there was enough evidence for his full conviction, instead of serving the felony in prison, he would be granted deferred probation.  Problem is, he violated that deferrment, so there's a good chance he'll be imprisoned.  The reason they won't permit bond, is that you stated quite clearly he was on the run.  Therefore, he's likely being seen as "High Risk" to skip probation again, and should definitely say something to you about his character.  You only get bond if you're considered low risk, and haven't proven to the court that you'll do something stupid.  Which, in your description is exactly what your BF did, and he got caught.\n\n> aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.\n\nThat's a severe charge, past regular misdemeanor, and generally encompasses a full felony conviction.  IE: It possibly entailed intent to commit battery, rape, arson, or something else of that nature, without falling under premeditation and without the use of a firearm... possibly with a pipe, knife, or even a vehicle, which might explain the traffic violations...\n\n> This is his first violation...\n\nOf his probation, but you list all the other charges as though they are tied to the same issue of the arrest.  In which point, there would also be the other charges compounded on the probation violation, which are also criminal 'violations' of the law.  \n\n>  I was wondering if with these charges my BF can get revoked\n> (2nd chance), put on the monitor, or if he is going to get some\n> time in jail? \n\nHis deferred probation, as the court will likely state, was his 2nd chance to clean his act up.  Violation of that probation, would incurr that he'll be requestioned to the court for a conviction of guilty, and there is no 3rd chance.\n\nIf this was a Deferred Adjudication of Guilt by reference of the Deferred Probation, all it did was delay the final judgment for a period of time.  If his probation was completed without incident, the charges are usually dropped and the case is dismissed, and  there is no mark placed on his criminal record.  However, during the probationary period he violated parole, and by the sounds of things did a few other things he wasn't supposed to be doing.  This will place a permanent mark of these charges on his criminal record.\n\nUnfortunately, this will plausibly lead to a conviction of Aggravated Assault, which is a felony conviction in most states, punished with time in a state prison.  It ranges from 1-7 years depending on the type of original crime from which the charges were drafted.\n\n> My boyfriend was just arrested 11/7/06. \n\nYou're likely in for a long haul, as he'll be held until an arraignment hearing to establish his other court dates can be determined.  Without bond, or a chance to post, he'll likely end up spending that time upto the point of his hearing in jail.\n\nThe problem with probation violation with such a serious offence, it generally results in the maximum penalty under the crime for which you have been convicted.  There is no helping you out on this one... just describing the bad news.

Tell her to immediately get on the phone and report that information to child support enforcement without delay!! Also make sure she doesn't mention that she is interested in finding out if the support cvan be garnished from it to the child's father because he may try to hide it or be more secretive. Tell her prior to calling try to find out from him who the insurance compnay is that he sued, that way when she contacts enforcement they will know what insurance agency to contact to put a garnish on it. I know it can be done, because my ex husband was hit by a car as a pedestrian and he was warded money. They took it and because he has such a history of not paying they even took out a year's worth of ADVANCE payments. Hopefully there is still some time before the insurance company pays to allow for enforcement to contact the insurance agency and to allow for them to get the petition to granish over to a judge to get signed. She needs to take advantage of this quickly before he gets that check and cashes it and it's too late for her to lay claim. If for some reason your state doesn't allow support to be garnished from a settlement, which I don't see why not, then she needs to make sure once she knows he has endorsed that check that she stays on enforcement's back of pursuing him to comply with child support...I'm sure if they don't garnish his check, once he cashes it and he has a choice of jail or paying a 5th of his check to support, he'll choose to pay.

You can lose your license for this. You have to appear in court for this one. Hope you have a good reason for that, your tail is hanging in the wind.

I would think if the ticket was issued to him, it would be his problem.  But if your car was in an accident, then it would be your insurance that would have to pay. That's why you need to be so careful who you let drive your car.

He may be able to try, but if he does you can challenge the ticket in court.  I can't see any possibility of that holding up in court with no proof other than an off duty deputies week old memory.  If you have any questions about how to challenge the ticket, you can normally talk with the police station that issued the ticket or your local courthouse.  You probably won't even need a lawyer from the sounds of this.

Honestly, where do you some of you people get the ideas you get?\n\nTo the asker:  assuming everything you said here is 100% factual, and assuming you didn't leave anything out, and assuming you have *all* the facts in the first place, then no, it doesn't sound like there was any probable cause to pull you over.  \n\nHowever, here's what I suspect, because I have done this very thing:\n\nI'm the cop you and your friend drove past when he/she yelled whatever they yelled.  Evidently, your friend wanted to come to the attention of the police, so I'm generally happy to oblige.  You don't say (and probably don't know) if it was the same cop who pulled you over, but it doesn't matter...we've got radios, ya' know?  \n\nSo anyway, back to your friend who wants to be a policeman's project:\n\nWhether I take off after you or I radio to one of my partners, one of us catches up to you.  You don't signal where you should, you have a taillight out, your registration is expired, etc., etc., and that provides me probable cause to stop you.  It's quite possible, especially if you developed an attitude problem, that I will tell you the only reason you're being stopped is because of your friend, the loudmouth.\n\nThe liberal among us will not like this, I know.  However, probable cause in this state is probable cause, and the motivation behind my use of probable cause is irrelevant to your guilt or innocence.  \n\nSo if you're right, the cop was wrong and you certainly do want to talk to an attorney.\n\nIf I'm right, you got pulled over because your idiot friend brought your car to the attention of the police, and it sounds like you paid a price for that.  Choose your friends better next time you're drinking and driving.\n\nAnd no, yelling out of your car is not disorderly conduct in California.  It's a rude and stupid exercise of your right to free speech.\n\nShouting something at the police is not an indication that you're not a reasonable person, and being an unreasonable person does not provide the police with reasonable cause to pull you over.  Holy cow, if this were true I could pull people over a hundred times a day.  \n\nBeing disrespectful to the police does not qualify as disorderly conduct.  It qualifies as stupid, but stupid does not equate to probable cause to effect a detention or make an arrest.  Don't I wish.\n\nYeah, we're always making things up just to pull you over.  I routinely risk being convicted of perjury and jailed for civil rights violations just to see if you've got big hooters, are drunk, or have a little weed in your car.  Please.\n\nYou're welcome to have just about any bumper sticker you want on your car and not have to worry about getting a ticket.  First of all, like I said, we do live in the land of free speech so you can have anything you want on your bumper.  If it says "I'm plotting to kill the President," you might end up with a visit from the Secret Service, but you can't get a ticket for displaying even an obscene bumper sticker.  \n\nHanging out the window is a good indication that you're not wearing your seat belt, but I'm not sure I'm familiar with a crime called "reckless endangerment."  \n\nI'm glad showing poor judgement doesn't really qualify as cause for the police to investigate.  If it did, I would literally spend my entire day talking to people with extraordinarily poor judgement who weren't committing a crime.  I do enough of that now.\n\nAnyway, I hope the cops had a really wonderful reason for pulling you over, once your friend decided you needed to stopped.  I hope their reason is enough to get you into court and convicted, if you really were driving in violation of the drunk driving laws in this state.  Your decision to do so put a huge number of people at risk...all of whom, except yourself, would have been innocent victims of your profoundly poor
