| | | Red light camera ticket
State: Southern California
I got a red light camera ticket in January. There was a problem with the ticket, it had my father's name on the ticket while my picture was on it. My father paid the ticket and then went to court, and ended up beating the ticket since the picture didn't match his face. Now over 3 months later I was sent the ticket asking me to pay it and to go to court. I heard that the city has to give you the ticket within 15 days of the incedent, which was over 3 months ago. What should I do? |

The problem here is that they had the wrong guy - now they have the right guy. Unless you can argue that it was not you in the citation, you may be out of luck.

Apparently they didn't do that initially in this case.

It is our unanimous opinion that you are damn right and it should be obvious to any moron that your (ex) (SO’s ex) (boss) (landlord) (local police) should be immediately (jailed) (fired) (reprimanded) (arrested) (demoted) (shot) (evicted).
In fact, you are so astonishingly correct in this matter, it will not surprise us one bit if you are offered a generous settlement, because, by golly, that’s just how it should be.
You Rock,
