Hopewell Virginia Traffic Ticket
Our Hopewell VA Traffic Attorneys represented a client from Alexandria VA who was driving through Hopewell VA on Interstate 295. A Hopewell Deputy Sheriff pulled him over for speeding and issued a Virginia Uniform Summons (a.k.a. “the ticket”) for Reckless Driving-Speeding 91/70 mph. The client was a business professional and was neither in a position to return for the case nor looking forward to having to report a misdemeanor criminal conviction to his employer. We detected a flaw with the Deputy Sheriff’s paperwork that affected the necessary courtroom testimony. At the appropriate time, we made a motion to dismiss the case, which Judge Clark accepted.
