I believe it would depend on-IF you add court cost,or  just the ticket itself.Are other citations added in as well? I almost got five years for what the officer (claimed to be "fleeing and alluding").High risk insurance an issue as well?Attorney fees start at about $5000 just for a retainer each of my four reckless endangerments(165-mph in a 35-mph zone)for instance.I got one ticket in Tennessee $5 fine $90 cort cost 17 years ago. P.S. not to mention car impound fees.  All just a wasted youth!!!

Yes. That's what the appeal process is for. You appeal it to the County Court of Appeals in the county where the violation occurred. There should be instructions on the back of your copy explaining what to do. Usually, you have to file the appeal within a certain time period after the finding of the lower court. The county court of appeals is the final court on a traffic violation, but often easy to have overturned for numerous reasons. If the officer fails to show up and they try to reschedule your appearance, object to the prosecuting attorney, if he/she is not cooperative, ask to speak to the judge. Usually it will be automatically reversed and dismissed. If you have an attorney, he can examine the ticket and details of the incident      and suggest a defense. If you are defending yourself and have  any evidence, e.g.- picture of obscured stop sign, witness, etc, you can introduce that evidence and essentially have a new trial. If you are guilty and have no real defense, plead "no contest' if the officer shows up. Its the same as a guilty plea, but does not indicate that you admit guilt. You also will have chance to explain circumstances to the judge. In Texas, the fine is usually cut in half and sometimes dismissed if you attend defensive driving school. Call the court that heard your case and ask about process to file the appeal. You may have to post the amount of the fine as bond and sometimes more, which will be reimbursed upon   the appeal trial.

The Statute of Limitations for a personal injury case is 2 years from the date of the accident.  If you do not either file a lawsuit or settle the case, any claims you may have had will be forever barred.  Do you live in Florida?  If so, you can contact Mr. Bruce Kaster, (352) 622-1600.  He is an excellent attorney.  I work for a law office in Texas and he is handling a case for us in Florida.

title 1, article 3 section 5 subsection b of the illinois compiled statutes (ILCS) 720 ILCS 5 says:\n\n(b) Unless the statute describing the offense provides otherwise, or the period of limitation is extended by Section 3‑6, a prosecution for any offense not designated in Subsection (a) must be commenced within 3 years after the commission of the offense if it is a felony, or within one year and 6 months after its commission if it is a misdemeanor. \n(Source: P.A. 93‑834, eff. 7‑29‑04; 94‑487, eff. 11‑9‑05; 94‑683, eff. 11‑9‑05.)\n\n( from:  http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/ilcs/ilcs4.asp?DocName=072000050HArt%2E+3&ActID=1876&ChapAct=720%26nbsp%3BILCS%26nbsp%3B5%2F&ChapterID=53&ChapterName=CRIMINAL+OFFENSES&SectionID=60572&SeqStart=4700000&SeqEnd=5600000&ActName=Criminal+Code+of+1961%2E )\n\nthe section that describes the crime of burglary (720 ILCS 5 Article 19) does not make any provision for a different statute of limitation.  (see first link in sources below.)\n\nso, 3 years from the event sounds like the answer.

Actually, all states have statutes of limitations, but those do not apply in your case. A statute of limitations is the time required, after an offense, in which proceedings must be instituted. Most states have eliminated statutes of limitations only for the most severe offenses, such as first degree murder.\nBecause your proceedings have already occurred, any statute of limitations doesn't apply. What you need to be concerned with is the fact that you apparently haven't fulfilled the judgment against you. Do you have any idea that the state of California is looking for you? If so, they can easily have their judgment enforced in another state. If not, the case may simply have been idled long enough that no one is working to seek enforcement. You may be able to call the clerk of the court in which the judgment was rendered to find out the status of the case. It is public information. Since the case is so old, they may not be able to give you the information over the phone, and you may have to go there in person. Even if you have to go there, the clerk's office personnel are not in the position, even if they wanted to, to attempt to find out who you are and to enforce the judgment.

That depends on the crime. Different crimes have different statutes of limitations, and those all vary by the jurisdiction. Some do not have limits, such as murder.

Every state has their own, so research "Statute of Limitations."  You might be able to find out information on the web.  Good luck.

It depends on the state.; you can either access the state codes through the internet (Anderson's) or a local library. Some offenses have no statute of repose or statute of limitations on prosecution, such as murder. If you cannot find the information you're seeking, I would suggest contacting a law school nearby to see if they have a legal clinic to help you with the research.

Most crimes, the only exceptions being very serious crimes like murder and rape, have what is called a statute of limitations associated with them.\n\nThe limits vary depending on the crime committed and the location, and there may be special exclusions in your area, but generally, charges would have to be brought within a year or two of the date on which the crime was committed.

It is how long a person can be held accountable for their actions.\n\nIn civil tort, it is usually 1 year.\nFor criminal offenses it can range from 1 year to no statute which is only for murder.

In most states, the statute of limitations is based on the type of claim, not the court where it will be filed.  California has a 4 year statute for breach fo written contract and 2 years for breach of a verbal contract.  It doesn't matter if the case can be filed in small claims court or not.

That isn't how it works.  Statutes of limitations serve to prevent causes of action from being brought too long after an alleged offense or tort was committed.  For example, if someone assaults you, you can't sue them 20 years later, you have to do it relatively quickly.  The exact length specified by the statute will vary from state to state.  Statutes of limitations don't have anything to do with expunging criminal records.\n\nThat being said, Texas law only allows criminal records to be expunged under very limited circumstances, mostly if you didn't do it or there are other irregularities.  For example, if you are arrested, but they don't bring a charge against you, you can get that expunged.  Same goes if you're acquitted, either by a trial court or on appeal.  But if you are convicted of a felony, and the conviction stands, you're pretty much stuck with it.

None! It is a Felony and it will show on there record.  Anyone that receives a DWI regardless of what state they live in should respect the lives of others on the road.  They should not put people, including myself in danger of a crash just because they thought it would be alright to drink and drive.

In WA, the statute of limitations is 6 years. They cannot go after you. Please see the link below, for the limitations. This site also lists the fines and laws they are violating, as well as sample letters to get them to stop. Good luck!

In North Carolina the staute of limitation is 7 years. Call the IL sheriff's dept or a majestrate and just ask them.
