What is the name of your state? Florida
As I was returning to Ft Bragg, NC, I got 2 speeding tickets in Florida, I would like to know how I can deal with them, as I will be in Iraq/Apghanistan for the next six months or so. I leave next week, which is less than 30 days after I got the tickets. Bothe fines are about $200, and while I am guily of one, the other was fraud on behalf of the FHP, they said a plane got me at 90 mph, which is a lie for sure, on several points. I wasn't going 90 ever that day, and they did NOT have a plane like they said. My wife & I watched for more than 1/2 hour as cop after cop pulled people over. The entire time, there were no planes visible in that area, NONE. If I am convicted of both of those tickets, or plead guilty to them, I could lose my license for years, under the habitual offender speeding act (A judge in my home area already threatened me with that.
Is there any way I could postpone the hearing on the tickets until I get home? If so what do I need to send the court. Also, I would rather just pay both fines, & not have the tickets hanging over my head for the next half year or so, I have enough to worry about if you know what I mean, but I would like the judges to with hold the convictions.
Thanks for your help, anyone.
Pray for peace! Mike
