How to plead in traffic court

Trusting Lawyers Loses Lawsuits!

by Dr. Frederick D. Graves JD, attorney at law

If you're like most people, you don't trust lawyers.

You're smart! I don't either ... and I've been one since 1986!

YOU DARE NOT TRUST LAWYERS!

You MUST go into every lawsuit doubting the honesty of all the lawyers, including your own!
Be on guard against the shady ethics of the lawyer on the other side and, if you can afford one, keep a close watch on your own lawyer, too!

The multitude of lawyer jokes is a clue!

Question: What's 5,000 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean?

Answer: A good start!

There are more lawyer jokes than jokes about all the other professions put together ... so there must be a reason!

Protect yourself !

Court battles are an axe-fight! Knowledge is your axe.

The other side's lawyer is going to play every dirty trick the judge allows. Count on it. Plan ahead for it. Be prepared to PROTECT YOURSELF!

But!

Dare you trust your own lawyer without first learning what it takes to win in court?
Will your lawyer do what must be done to win?

If you cannot pay your lawyer for all the hours needed to get evidence, prepare for hearings, research the law, draft effective motions, etcetera, who is going to get the job done?

Will your lawyer even tell you what could have been done, what should have been done ... once you lose?

What if your lawyer gets up on the wrong side of the bed?

What if your lawyer is afraid to stand up to the judge and threaten appeal by objecting to the judge's rulings? You'd be amazed how many are afraid of judges!

Where does this leave YOU?

Legal malpractice and courtroom corruption are on the rise, yet most people have no idea how to fight back and protect themselves. Most people have no idea what it takes to win ... or how easy it is to learn.

When your own lawyer (if you have one) bails at the last minute when crunch time comes or wimps out when it's necessary to hold the judge accountable to the rules, if YOU don't know what to do, YOU LOSE!

Most disturbing of all, if you lose for these reasons YOU CANNOT APPEAL YOUR LOSS!

The only way to protect yourself is to learn!

Jurisdictionary shows you what needs to be done. You'll know how pleadings and motions should be drafted. You'll know what must be done to force the other side to produce evidence. You'll know the objections that must be made when the opposition tries to trick you with legalese or smoke-and-mirrors tactics. You'll know how to keep the judge in line!

Without the easy-to-learn official Jurisdictionary self-help course, you're at the mercy of the lawyer on the other side, at the mercy of the judge and, if you have a lawyer. you're at the mercy of your very own lawyer!

Illegal alien gets justice in Georgia

Five days after President Obama delivered the 2012 State of the Union Address to Congress and the nation, a hearing to determine whether President Barack Obama is eligible to be on the primary ballot in Georgia took place on Thursday, with the defendants, Obama and his legal team, notably absent. Georgia Deputy Chief Judge Michael Malihi subpoenaed the president last week after refusing to hear his legal team's challenge to the case, but neither Obama nor his lawyers ever planned on showing up. The Judge pulled the lawyers for the three cases into chambers before it all began and advised them that he would be issuing a default judgment in our favor, since the Defense council failed to show, and wanted to end it there. We argued that all the evidence needed to be entered in to record so the Judge allowed for a speedy hearing where all evidence was entered into the court record. What that means is this... Any appeal, if one is even possible, would be based on the evidence provided by the lawyers in each case. Obama's lawyer may be disbarred or jailed for contempt of court.

In his high school yearbook coke dealer Hussein Obama Soetoro was listed in the official Dope Smokers Club, now in charge of life sentences for pot smokers, SWAT raids on medical marijuana clinics, raising heroin production 10,000% in Afghanistan and giving 20,000 guns to the Mexican Mafiya to chop heads off cops and politicians

"Shit's gettin way too complicated for me. There are white folks, and then there are ignorant mutherfuckers like you! You can put lipstick on a pig. Sorry ass mutherfucker's got nuttin on me. I inhaled frequently - that was the point. Pot helped, and booze. A little blow when you could afford it. Junkie, pothead, that where I was headed."

Discovery Channel’s ‘Hell Roads’ to include ‘The Dragon’

Maryville Daily Times

The 11.1-mile stretch of U.S. 129 from Tabcat Bridge to the North Carolina state line known as "The Dragon" will be one of eight “Hell Roads” featured at 9 Wednesday night on The Discovery Channel.

Davis Reidpath, a videographer with V2 Films in New York, contacted The Daily Times in December seeking assistance with the project and eventually asked for permission to use editorial content from a series of stories published Oct. 16-19 entitled “Taming the Dragon.”

According to The Discovery Channel’s television guide, the one-hour program will be broadcast Wednesday at 9 and 11 p.m.; 10 p.m., Jan. 28; 12 a.m., Jan. 29; and 1 p.m., Feb. 4.

I wonder if Blount County Govt's new billion-dollar "Tourism Dept" is responsible for this plethoria of TV shows on the Dragon?

I wonder if this speed demon appeared in Hell Roads?

Sportbiker gives the finger

Some people will do anything to be on TV

John Hopkins gives a finger

I don't know why people keep harping on that old fool Chuck Norris when we have motorcycle racers around. Suzuki rider John Hopkins opted to have one of his fingers amputated rather than risk not being able to race when the 2012 Superbike season starts at Philip Island.

Trouble for Hopper started last summer when he was called up by Suzuki to fill a wildcard shot in MotoGP for the Czech Grand Prix. What looked to be a simple fall in practice turned into a calvary of six operations with, apparently, the prospect for more.

Hopkins was remarkably upbeat as he posted a picture of his hand on twitter...

Ha ha?....awesome.

Red Light Cameras Ticketing Drivers Who Stop at Lights

Cities increasingly using red light cameras to ticket drivers who come to a full stop.

Cities around the country have begun dropping the use of red light cameras,which were once touted as the best way to stop drivers from "blowing through" red lights. Disappointed municipal officials invariably point to the systems' failure to generate the promised amount of revenue as the reason for the change. To keep from losing more clients, the red light camera industry's latest move has been to ticket drivers who stop at red lights to boost the number of potential violations.

Several years ago the industry significantly increased its yield by transitioning away from ticketing vehicles for running red lights. Instead, camera focused on right-hand turn lanes so they could mail citations to the owners of vehicles that make slow, rolling right turns on red. In some jurisdictions, right-turn tickets account for 90 percent of all tickets issued -- even though national and local data suggest the maneuver is not dangerous. In some cases, however, right-turn tickets failed to be profitable when the public refused to pay citations -- as happened in Los Angeles, California -- or because of legislative restrictions on right-turn citations -- as happened in Florida.

Last April, the city of Denver became the first jurisdiction in Colorado to allow a private company, Affiliated Computer Services, to issue red light camera tickets to stationary vehicles. Issuing tickets to stopped drivers only required a simple software change, but it boosted the city's profit fourfold.

Newark, California is one of the cities where ninety percent of the $480 tickets issued by Redflex Traffic Systems of Australia go to the owners of vehicles photographed turning right on red. Through December 2011, the change has contributed significantly to the grand total of 41,575 tickets Redflex has been issued, worth $19,956,000.

One of those ticket recipients, who asked not to be identified, drove his Toyota Prius on August 27 at the intersection of Newark Boulevard and Jarvis Avenue. He pulled up to the intersection at a speed of 16 MPH with his turn signal activated. He came to a full stop and waited for several seconds for traffic to clear before proceeding. His front tire crossed the first line of the crosswalk, which Newark and Redflex contend is a serious violation of the law. At 9:42pm, there were no pedestrians visible anywhere near the intersection. Though the Prius driver was outraged at receiving the ticket, he decided to plead guilty before a judge known for reducing turning tickets to $110 rather than risk losing the full $480.

"It is extremely easy to beat this type of ticket in court. Your easiest defense is to simply throw the ticket away. If it does not come with a return receipt that requires a signature, there is no proof that you actually got the ticket."

"Your photo radar defense: Ignoring The Letter. When you receive a general post letter advising you of your photo radar citation, you have the option of just ignoring it. All states have guidelines on how the citation must be served. In effect, your payment or appearance at the courthouse is your acceptance of service. By not responding to the letter, you are refusing acceptance of service. In addition, none of the departments are making personal service to anyone that lists a PO Box as their mailing address on their vehicle registrations."

75% of AZ Drivers Refuse to Pay Photo Traffic Tickets

"Starting tomorrow, photo-enforcement-violation notices must finally state the truth about what's going on -- namely, that you don't need to respond or identify the driver in the picture. Cities and, for a while, the state of Arizona, have for years employed something of a ruse to help get speeders and red-light runners caught by the machines to pay up. They sent an initial notice of violation that has no legal teeth, yet contained a passive threat that blowing off the notice might not be in the motorists' best interest. A few years ago, we caught the city of Scottsdale lying blatantly in its notices, which it falsely called a "summons." The notice stated that those who didn't respond would be subject to fines, fees and driver's license suspension. An Arizona Department of Public Safety notice of violation that we published two years ago shows the more-typical trick. Appearing below DPS insignia, the notice states simply that the motorist should fill out the form and sent it back by the "respond-by date." While the DPS freeway cameras were online, (that program ended last summer), thousands of people likely responded like sheep to those notices -- even though they didn't have to. As numerous articles in New Times and elsewhere have pointed out, ignoring those notices only meant the possibility of a ticket being served at the offender's home by a process server. True, having a server come out meant an additional $25 added to the fine. But if the server never comes, or the motorist doesn't appear to be home when the server comes -- always a distinct possibility -- then the photo enforcement ticket becomes invalid. Now, thanks to a bill that Governor Jan Brewer signed, notices of violation must confess that: (a) the notice is not a court issued document; (b) the recipient is under no obligation to identify the person or respond to the notice; and (c) failure to respond to the notice may result in official service that may result in an additionally levied fee. The new law also mandates that $13 of every ticket goes to the "GITEM" task force, which has a mission of "strict enforcement" of immigration and gang laws."
