Default Definitely in your favor. Pull the survey. If to your advantage. exploit it. And

cross your fingers that the court date is on the cops day off and he lives too far away to deal with it, esp as he will know you are taking him to task.

Excellent point. Especially if officers' day off, overtime pay and mileage involved.

Default I plan to do this. I'll be reasonable and concise, so it doesn't look like ...

... I've got an axe to grind or am being defensive. I come across well in that regard, disarming cops and officials by my style. Then, I still have a chance at traffic school or even a court date (but I probably wouldn't do that if the "by mail" approach fails).

FWIW, it's not your responsibility to produce that survey -- it's the prosecutions.

Default It is a defense motion, and if it supports his case, (as it did the time I used it), it is

a worthwhile pursuit. The prosecution sure isn't going to produce it.

Default exactly...and if you do a trial by written declaration, the more evidence you can pile against the

officer's, the more valid your argument will look.
