Reply #31 – May 09, 2005, 12:21:33 PM Quote from: DryGoodsRant ahead: Just came from the lawyer's office, this isn't about the money as my lawyer fee will amount to almost as much as the fine, but the principle behind it. Lawyer called DNR, DNR doesn't know a thing except for cop turning me in. Lawyer called PD, PD shift commander said I was "disrespectful" to the officer and I should be glad I didn't get a disorderly conduct charge and get locked up! Glad for doing what a cop was too chicken to do? What do they give cops like this when they graduate from the police acadamy, a pacifier? Lawyer states we'll go to muni court, see what the judge says, that is May 9, keep you posted!Went to court this morning, the DNR game warden, the cop and the prosecutor all giving me the evil eye! Judge heard both sides of the story and still didn't drop the case, but did fine me. $1 was the fine and I wasn't responsible for court costs, and no recording of a "crime" on my record. My lawyer helped immensly, his bill will amount to about $200, but a small price to pay than to be faced with a misdemeanor and a much larger fine. Dern suburban coppers, nothing better to do.
