At our firm, we fight every case strategically, and our recent success in Triangle Town Court is proof of that. Our client was charged with speeding 107 MPH in a 65 MPH zone—a serious offense that could have resulted in significant fines, points, and potential license consequences. However, after a thorough review of the case, we identified a crucial issue: the court lacked geopgrahical jurisdiction.
The ticket alleged that the offense occurred in the Town of Barker, yet it was improperly filed in Triangle Town Court. We filed a motion to dismiss on jurisdictional grounds, arguing that the charge should have been brought in the correct court. The Broome County District Attorney’s Office conceded that the ticket was filed in the wrong court. After that, the judge agreed and granted our motion, dismissing the ticket outright.
This case highlights the importance of carefully analyzing every detail in a traffic ticket. A mistake by law enforcement can mean the difference between a conviction and a dismissal. If you’ve been issued a speeding ticket or any other traffic violation, contact us to see how we can help.
