What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Oregon
My husband recieved a speeding ticket, we indicated NO CONTEST on the citation and sent a letter saying although we didn't feel he was quilty, he has been a victim of racial profiling several times, we were asking for leniency and lowering of his bail amount. The court then turned around and stated that his plea was entered as not guilty according to our written request for bail reduction, although we had indicated no contest on the citation. Can the court change the plea we indicated on the citation, just because of our letter that was intended to get our bail reduced? As a side note, they indicated an incorrect race on his citation, adressed him as amigo, he in not mexican, can the incorrect information on the citation be used by us?
