COURT NOTICE
NO AUDIO OR VIDEO RECORDING IS ALLOWED IN COURT PROCEEDINGS. Forms
V&T Reductions on tickets ADA-Dominik Maida If applying for a reduction (see the link above-under forms); contact the court to let them know you applying and need an adjournment. Before starting the reduction class, you will need a copy of your driver's abstract (or record) from the State you reside or you can go to a local DMV and they will give you one for NYS. Once a ticket is issued in NYS, you are given a NYS ID number. You will also need a copy of your ticket. You will need to upload both of those into the program. Failure to do that; will cease you from getting the reduction. DO NOT MAIL A NOT GUILTY PLEA TO THE COURT, IF YOU ARE APPLYING FOR A REDUCTION, AS THAT WILL TRIGGER THE COURT TO SET YOU FOR A NON JURY TRIAL (UNLESS THAT IS WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING TO DO). |
