What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? IL
Hey all,
Thank you for taking the time to look into my post. About a month ago on Dec 16th, 2011 I was pulled over for speeding. I went through the whole process and the cop came back and told me "I am going to let you off with a warning and slow it down". I don't have any record of him saying this, but since that was said to me I disregarded the paper as a warning and now a month later I am being asked by the court to pay a 130 ticket that automatically made my plea guilty when I had no court date or a reason to send the ticket with a payment.
What should I do about this situation? I have no issues paying the normal 95 dollar or whatever price, but it shouldn't go on my record because I was completely unaware that I was being ticketed.
