I'm in Pennsylvania, and am having a problem with a district "justice" office. A year ago, my mother was pulled over for a traffic violation, which according to the ticket was a summary level offense. Neither of us live in the town and county in which this occurred, and her health has deteriorated severly since then, and she is unable to physically go there. Despite sending in the ticket stub attempting to plead guilty (and pay the fine, currently undefined), sending a second letter to the same effect, and now retaining an attorney to help dispose of this, the magistrate's office is still being a pain.
Currently, we're at the point with the lawyer where a signed doctor's letter is being sent to the magistrate stating that her health condition makes her unable to travel there, but I really don't hold much hope that this will have any effect of forcing them to just get this taken care of. So my question at this point is do these things ever expire? Or do they linger forever? It seems as though this magistrate's office is content to let it sit there indefinitely.
