I'm not familiar with the rhetorical rollercoaster disposition court skated in on, but it seems at face value to shit all over due process in the name of masquerading revenue generation as enforcement... am I missing something about this? As I understand it, you have no right to appeal, you have no right to judgement by a jury of your peers, they have the option of changing your citation should you contest the applicability of the governing statute (wouldn't that be double jeopardy?), 110$ cost of court even if your charges are dismissed? Isn't that kind of like transposing "innocent until proven guilty" into "guilty even when proven innocent"? I have got to be missing something big about this, because this doesn't seem to simply reside in a grey area, this system is diametrically opposed to pretty much every stipulation of due process. 4/17/2006 6:17:58 PM |
