Im gonna need the number to this attorney asap, I was ticket raped once again with a bunch of bs, like no license, expired tags etc.. When I clearly handed my fucken license to the douche cop and clearly had valid tags, i think he was just being an ******* and figured that he pile it on. Since he assumed i was gonna hire a lawyer and those ******* charge $75 per ticket even if it's not valid, I was in the Vette. And the reason i was given a ticket was because i "ran a barricade" i kinda did but i was following a black suburban which turned out to be swat..lol, so once i got further down the street i was stopped completly by another barricade and turned around only to be stopped again and written a grocery list of fucken tickets.

He usually deals with cases in District court but I believe they are still handling traffic violations. I haven't had to use him for that in years because I have calmed down some. His name is Perry Bass I will have to dig up his #.

Well he hasn't had his license taken yet, but i think it's pretty bs how it happened... He was coming home, and as he was passing through our neighborhood, he passed this house, and these people started FREAKING out, and yelling. We looked around and saw nobody in the street, and he was going 15mph.
a few hours later, a cop came to our door saying the people said he was going 60 and almost hit their kid. that was a complete lie. i know, because i was THERE. I tried standing up for him, but that just pissed the cop off, and that's when he said he was putting that status on my brother.

But he did not give him a ticket, correct? I'm assuming not since he can't. In Texas a Class C Misdemeanor such as speeding has to be witnessed by the officer and can not be charged against someone threw a witness statement no matter how credible that witness is. You could do 160 through the neighborhood with 100 witnesses and the only thing the officer could do other than contact you and tell you to slow down is sit and wait for you to do it again. Habitual offender status is applied by the courts, not the street officer. However an officer can bring it to the court's attention if your brother meets the requirements.
