For those following this legal case I’ve received my hearing date:

 

Tuesday, May 22, 2007 at 10:30AM.

 

I’ve spoken to some friends at work about this and some express a concern that the officer who gave me the summons may not show…which I don’t want to happen for possible insurance reasons…and what’s worst is that the court can further postpone the hearing and have me come back at a later date and therefore I would loss 2 work day wages! What’s worst even is that I can’t sue to get those lost wages back! I’ll keep you posted.

On top of everything else, the hearing letter states that if I don’t show up for the hearing, my license will be suspended and I would have to pay a suspension fee and the summons’s fee and the surcharge even if I’m found to be not guilty! That's $35+$40+$50=$125! I wonder what the police officer has to pay if he doesn’t show?
