I got a speeding tickets for driving 65 in a 60 zone (5 miles above). Is it illegal? What should I do to contest this ticket?

IDWLS, 3rd degree, probation violation DUI

Did you plea guilty with or without an attorney? If you plead guilty without an attorney there might be a basis to withdraw your guilty plea. Even if you plea guilty with one there still might be a basis if the court didn't follow the procedures in accepting your guilty plea. You can file a motion to vacate your guilty plea. No, your case needs to be heard in the county where you entered your plea. Let me know if tthis helps.

Will all non-profit organizations work to satisfy Court ordered community service hours?

Depending on the court and what the judgement and sentence say, this might actually suffice for your community service hours if it is a truly non-profit charity.

5mph and spotless record

Yes, you should fight the ticket. If anything if you have a spotless record you might want to go with the deferral route to keep it spotless. Or you could just hire an attorney and they will appear at court for you and still keep your record spotless.

Can I get a deferral or probation on a 2nd speeding ticket if it's been 4 years since the last one?

No, you cannot use the deferral option for this one. You can only use it once for a moving violation, i.e. speeding and once for a non-moving violation every 7 years. So if this current ticket is a non-moving violation then you can use it but if it's a moving violation then no you can use the deferral option. You might want to consult an attorney about contested your current ticket

Highly unlikely but it might affect her ability to obtain citizenship if she gets convicted of a crime. She should consult a criminal defense attorney to help her out with this.
